Child Development



ACTIVITY, SLEEP & BOREDOM

In this DVD, physical activity and quality sleep are both vital for healthy bodies. A stoplight is used as a symbol to represent activity, boredom, and sleep.

1. Green Light = Go! Physical activity turns your brain on to learn. Our bodies need movement to stay healthy, but so do our brains!

2. Red Light = Stop! Sleep is vital for your child. How much do they need and why?

3. Yellow Light = Slow down! Doing "nothing", and even being bored, is actually very important to how we process the world around us, and studies suggest, it is vital to creativity! So how can you give your kids good boredom? And why doesn't watching TV count as this "down time"?

PATTERN, STRUCTURE & NOVELTY

Our brains are wired to perceive patterns and structure in the world around us. Young children especially need structure to feel secure and be ready to learn. Yet our brains also are continually seeking something new! Too much of the same things causes our brains to get bored - and too many new things can cause confusion or chaos! Discover how to give young children the structure that they need to set up a strong foundation for learning, and how to add new activities and ideas in ways that nurture their hunger for learning.

    CHILD DEVELOPMENT: PRESCHOOL & SCHOOL-AGE

    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.

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.
