Parents as first educators

Korte beschrijving:
This lecture starts with a discussion of the socially, emotionally and cognitively healthy two-year-old. What are the key issues for parents today in supporting the wellbeing of their very young children? And how can professionals intervene to educate parents and enhance their innate skills? Of particular concern for parents are issues around sleeping, napping, routines, screen time and creating a positive home learning environment. The lecture will address all of these and also look at different kinds of families, especially those headed by fathers and same sex couples.
