As a pediatrician and a mother of three, I know that children thrive when they have lots of people around them to love. Safe, stable, and nurturing relationships build both healthy self-esteem and healthy brains. Early Brain and Child Development (EBCD) is a strategic priority of the American Academy of Pediatrics, the nationwide advocacy organization for pediatricians to promote the health and development of all children.
The “5 Rs” of early literacy helps build the critical social-emotional and language skills that support healthy brain development and pre-literacy skills that are essential to school success. Parents and caregivers can play with children and teach them at the same time by following a few simple rules:
Read together every day with your child.
Rhyme, play and cuddle with your child several times per day.
Practice Routines, particularly around meals, sleep, and daily activities.
Reward your child with praise for successes to build self-esteem and promote positive behavior.
Develop a strong and nurturing Relationship with your child as the foundation for their healthy development.
Finally by practicing the 5 Rs, you will remember all of the fun you have had with your children and likewise they will have remarkable memories of their early childhoods.
