The resources aim to help you engage parents on various aspects of children’s development, including physical, emotional, social, and cognitive growth.

Each resource in this series includes:

  • A real-life scenario to help you address parents' concerns/misconceptions

  • Research-based information to strengthen parents’ buy-in

  • Practical tips for parents

In this series, you will find resources that will help parents understand the importance of

  1. Play
