In the early years, the brain forms connections that set the stage for lifelong learning, behaviour, and health. By age six, children have a solid foundation for reaching their full potential. Parents and caregivers have the greatest impact on how a child grows and develops in the early years. You can make the difference!

What i need

If infants, toddlers and preschoolers could tell you what they need, here is what they might say:

Keep me safe

Know where I am and who I am with. Teach me who to go to when I need help.

Keep me secure

Hug me. Respect me. Let me know your love is forever. This will help me develop trust and self-esteem.

Keep me healthy

I need a variety of good foods, regular checkups, immunizations, fresh air, time to run and play and regular sleep.

help me learn

Talk, sing, and play with me. Read to me. Stimulate me with sights, smells, tastes, and sounds.

help me adjust

I need routines and comfort when I am upset. Help me make friends and learn how to get along with others.

tAKiNG CAre oF YoU Parenting is a joy and a challenge! Night-time crying, temper tantrums, and the sheer energy of a five-year-old can leave you feeling tired and upset. When you feel this way, it’s hard to be at your best. Parenting will be a joyful process when you take care of yourself, as well as your child. Take a break once in a while. Go out with friends or your partner. Ask a friend, family or someone you trust to stay with your child.

Enjoy music and other activities you like. Get your parenting questions answered by visiting a community resource. Go for walks with your child and meet other parents.

See your doctor if you are sick, feel sad for more than two weeks or if you are worried that your behaviour may harm your child.

GettiNG reAdY For KiNderGArteN Many parents are concerned that their child may begin Kindergarten without the developmental skills that will make that first school year a success. Eighty percent of children on the North Shore begin Kindergarten with the skills they will need. However, there are many enjoyable learning activities that can strengthen these early skills, and increase the bond between parent and child at the same time.

■ Ask the Children’s Librarian at your local public library for a list of books appropriate for four and five year olds.

■ Get a library card for your child, and make regular visits to the library to choose books together.

■ Read with your child every day.

■ Play card games that encourage counting and the recognition of number sets. “Go Fish”, “Memory” and “Snap” are all simple games that all can enjoy.

■ Use numbers when engaging your child in helpful activities (“Put six knives on the table”; “Take two cookies to Dad”; “Find ten red napkins”).

■ Teach your child how to take off a jacket, hang it up, and put it back on again. Try to buy jackets with big, strong zippers that a child can manage independently.

■ Teach your child to put on their own socks and shoes. Most four-year-olds will need help with laces, but can manage the rest with practice.

■ Teach your child how to peel a banana, open a yogurt tube or remove a snap-on lid from a snack container. This will help with snack and lunch periods, when independence is important.

■ Visit Maplewood Farm, travel on the Sea Bus, and visit a variety of North Shore parks. Talk about what you see.

■ Give your child group learning experiences through StrongStart, preschool or community recreation centre programs. Socializing with peers, listening for instructions, and engaging in shared activities is terrific preparation for Kindergarten.

Middle Years The middle years can be divided into two sections: 6-9 years, and 10-12 years, or the preteen years.

ChildreN 6-9 YeArS

Children 6-9 years demonstrate a cluster of characteristics that parents and caregivers will recognize: ■ Gender separation in play ■ Increasing independence ■ Increased ability to accept responsibility ■ Beginning to enjoy organized sports activities (8 years)

ChildreN 10-12 YeArS (Pre-teeNS) ■ ■ ■ ■ ■

Many entering puberty Relationships with peers are very important Acceptance from peers very important Connections to positive and supportive adults a need Opportunities for independence are important

AFter-SChool ACtiVitieS Are imPortANt For Pre-teeNS!

School-age children, particularly pre-teens, can benefit from engagement in after-school activities such as sports, music, dance, theatre, cooking, and arts and crafts. Benefits include: ■ Enriched and broadened life experiences ■ Development of “non-academic” skills ■ New friendships ■ Reduced “screen time” away from TV and computers ■ Opportunities to connect with positive, mentoring adults in the community.
