A child's physical development is not as dramatic as it is during infancy, but the changes still are very apparent. Preschoolers can dress themselves, draw pictures, throw balls and run forward and backward. Language is developing at a very fast pace as they come into contact with the environment and others around them. Physical, social, emotional and intellectual skills occur best when the caregiver has apparent knowledge of children. This interactive DVD examines children at the age of three, four, five and school age. Learn how to create an atmosphere where children can have fun, learn new things and enhance their self-esteem. Numerous examples of activities are presented to help children cultivate positive self-talk, handle negative events and work individually and in groups. Experts also demonstrate how an activity can be adjusted so children can achieve success.
Parents, teachers and other adult caregivers are advised to respect and encourage individual differences in children and build on their strengths, rather that belittle them for perceived weaknesses.
This program discusses the need for parents and educators to provide activities based on the developmental level for each child and features appropriate activities in a kindergarten setting.
Explains the role parents should play in fostering learning in children from birth to five; also the challenge to let them to learn as fully as possible without pushing too hard or letting them drift into boredom.
Young children are naturally curious and wonderfully imaginative; they constantly ask questions as to how and why things work, as any parent knows. Children use that curiosity and imagination to think effectively and to create in many ways, be that with their minds, in words, songs or stories, with their bodies, in rhythm, dance, movement, games or sports, or with their hands, using paints, pencils, pens, crayons, paper and bits of wood. As Dr. Frances Bond explains, creativity is not a special gift possessed by only a few people it's possessed by everyone in varying degrees. In this program she addresses how creativity develops and what parents can do to nurture their child's creativity.
The most dramatic changes in any person's life occur within the first year. For parents or caregivers, it is vital to know what to expect of a baby's progress in this time. This program provides essential information on developmental milestones associated with a child's first 15 months of life. The program looks at the importance of communication, as well as how to recognize cognitive and motor development, such as palmer and plantar grasp and the Moro reflex. The program addresses the national standards, as well as the standards of the National Coalition for Family and Consumer Sciences Education.
The set explores the mental development of children. Vol. 1 studies how they develop an adult's ability to discern the feelings of others and lie for both good and bad reasons.

Vol. 3 looks at children in relation to the existential questions of birth and death.
Parents and caregivers who work with and teach children can be more successful by knowing how children learn and develop. The DVD helps caregivers tune into the various needs of children by showing examples of the typical physical, social and emotional development levels of children from infancy through four years of age.
