A child’s brain rapidly grows and constantly transforms. The first 1,000 days of a child’s life are a period of super-fast changes in their bodies, their brains, and their emotions. Spending quality time with kids is important to support their development.
You help children learn with each moment of eye contact, each new word you speak to them, and every time you make them laugh.
Set kids on the right track before they enter kindergarten. Every day spend 30 minutes of quality time with the little ones in your life. It means attention is 100% on your child. What a baby learns in their early years helps guide them, and you can help.
Happy and healthy lives start early. Thankfully, it is easy to give your child a health start! You can find plenty of fun, engaging activities via the QT 30 program.
