Early
Childhood Development
"Do
you know all the ways you should measure your child’s growth?
We naturally think of height and weight, but from birth to 5 years,
your child should reach milestones in how he plays, learns, speaks and
acts. A delay in any of these areas could be a sign of a developmental
problem, even autism. The good news is, the earlier it’s
recognized the more you can do to help your child reach her full
potential."
"The
Young
Athlete Program was created
in consultation with the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New
Jersey, to meet the physical and development needs of children, ages 2 ½ to 7,
in the areas of physical activity and play, with an emphasis on sports
skill development. The activities presented in the program are designed
to develop the fundamental prerequisite skills to prepare athletes for
future participation in sports. The program includes user-friendly
instructions and a complete kit of sports activity equipment. The
design of this program provides flexibility for the parent/sibling,
paraprofessional, teacher, and volunteer to conduct activities. The Young Athlete Program
can
be used in a preschool/school environment, playgroup or one-on-one
situation."
