Early Years
The first six years are the most important in a child's life. In the early years, the brain makes connections that set the stage for lifelong learning, health and well-being.
You can help build your child's healthy brain and body.
- Loving and responsive interactions with your child tells them that they are important to you.
- Playing with your child builds relationships. Lots of time spent talking, listening and interacting with your child helps them develop skills they need for life.
- Other things like healthy eating, physical activity and connections to your community also have a positive impact on your child's development.
