New sensory experiences “light up” your child’s developing brain. I just love this video, which has gone viral in recent days, of a toddler being exposed for the first time to a new and fascinating sound: a violin being played by a street performer in Valencia. It’s almost as... if he’s drawn by a magnet to the sound and performer - joyfully waving his hands as he wobbles his way over to get a closer look. New sensory experiences activate the brain’s neural networks and help to create and strengthen their pathways. But I also want to spotlight something special the violinist does: Noticing her little admirer, she not only turns to face him, but crouches down to meet him at eye level - allowing him a better vantage point on the whole situation. Not only is this a strategy parents should employ as much as possible, but it’s a great marker of early childhood classroom quality. Looking for an amazing infant-toddler teacher? One really committed to optimizing your child’s early development? Be on the lookout for those who spend their days down on the floor, interacting directly with children face-to-face at eye level. This lovely interaction comes via reh_violin on TT.show more

This is the best advice I've ever read for how to make a quick but solid judgment about the quality of preschool teachers. Worked 11 years in daycare centers. If no adult is on the floor talking, playing, holding, listening then center is either understaffed or adults unsuited.

I love when kids explore and get new experiences. New & exciting experiences are far more powerful for learning than “toys”. Parents often get hung up on buying the “right” educational toy. The right learning product…we often forget that new experiences are POWERFUL learning for our kids. Keep giving them new ones and watch them grow. Talk them through those new experiences afterwards using new subject specific vocabulary. “Violin” “music” “new country you’re visiting” etc. We simply took our kids to a new city two days ago for one night. They stayed in a hotel for the first time and swam in an indoor pool for the first time. (Trivial BUT for them ALL new experience was exciting)

My eyes appear to be leaking. Wonderful, going down to this little chaps level, as if she was now just playing for him. A respect to her new admirer and knowing she was doing something magical in that moment for him. His body movements seemed to be swaying to the music also. ❤️

Beautiful. I sincerely hope every child encounters the idea that people make music—not electronic buttons and boxes. They can make music. It’s one of our species oldest and most fulfilling activities.

Here’s some A+ parental behavior. 🏅 What you’re seeing is an example of sensory play. As babies grow, one of the most important things you can do as a parent is provide safe and varied opportunities for your baby to use their senses (sight, sound, taste, touch and smell) to explore the world. Through a multitude of experiences, children make new neural connections in the brain. Think of how many textures alone there are to experience: soft, hard, fuzzy, smooth, rough, prickly…the list goes on and on. By exposing your child to a variety of sensory experiences, you are not only helping them to understand the world around them - but helping them to create deep understandings and rich vocabulary. I just love the way this dad playfully allows his son to experience rain for the first time. To feel the raindrops, to experience their wetness, to hear their impact on the pavement. His approach makes this new experience safe and fun. And what does baby want as a result? More rain! Outstanding 🧠 building on display in this video shared on IG by ReadersDigest.

I only have eyes for you, Dad. 👀 Take a moment to admire not only this sweet “serve and return” conversation between this father and daughter - but the completely unbroken eye contact they share. Eye contact is an important early developmental milestone for your baby and key to strengthening attachment during infancy. So carve out time for regular face-to-face interaction. This eight-week-old is in a particular sweet spot on the eye contact front, as newborns’ vision tends to take on greater clarity and focus between 6-10 weeks. Suddenly she can see dad’s face in detail and doesn’t want to miss a single second. What a sweet duo. (Note that if your baby is not making regular eye contact by 2-3 months of age, it’s worth bringing this to the attention of your pediatrician - as this may be a sign of a vision issue or other developmental concern.) This great video was shared to IG by marywrites.

Does your little one want to hear the same book over and over and over again? The repetition can be a little maddening for us as parents, but for children it’s actually very beneficial. Favorite books are not only familiar and comforting, but support vocabulary growth and - importantly - your child’s own participation in the reading experience. I just love this video of little Theo and his mom as they read Eric Carle’s Does a Kangaroo Have a Mother Too? Not only can you tell it’s a book they’ve read together many times, but the familiar, repetitive pattern of the text itself allows Theo to play a role in the reading. Watch as he provides an enthusiastic “YES!” at the beginning of each page. (Note too what a good job he does at matching his “yes” response to the appropriate point in the text itself. It’s the first thing said after each page is turned.) As for vocabulary growth, repeated exposure to new words helps children to internalize vocabulary more rapidly with one study suggesting that children are more likely to incorporate new vocabulary from a book read three times than from three different books read one time apiece.

Want to see a baby make 60 million neural connections? 🧠 Look no further than this fantastic video. As they bide a little time in the car, our hero and his dad engage in this lovely “serve and return” interaction. And it’s hard to tell which of them is loving it more. If you’re a new parent or grandparent, know that these face-to-face, back-and-forth interactions are one of the very best ways to light up your baby’s developing brain. At birth your baby’s brain is home to up to 100 billion neural (nerve) cells - but depends heavily on early experiences and interactions to help create the connections between them that will go on to undergird language and more sophisticated forms of cognition. During the earliest months of life researchers estimate that these neural connections occur at a rate of one million per second - meaning that 60 million or more occur over the course of this beautiful one minute conversation. Talk, talk, talk to your baby. The payoff will be huge. This loving father and son duo was shared to TT by smileybunch.

The Presidents Cup might not be the biggest event in golf, but it’s a helluva milestone for Sahith Theegala—this is the first time he’s representing the United States as one of the 12 best American golfers. For a kid who grew up with immigrant parents from India, working their ass off to give him a chance to live out his golfing dreams, that’s something really special. It’s not lost on him this week.

Allow your toddler to experience a little frustration. I know that may sound odd, but hear me out. We all face challenges and frustrations in life – and this is especially true of toddlers, who are still developing and refining so many essential skills. Tempting though it may be, eliminating obstacles from your child’s life is not a recipe for success. What we want to build, instead, is resilience – the ability to persevere and succeed, even in the face of difficulty. This involves developing a healthy tolerance for frustration. Not always. And not too much. But a little here and there. As a parent, the key here is to identify situations with just the right amount of challenge… tasks that aren’t beyond your child’s ability, but ones that may require a little analysis, practice, and effort before they find success. Healthy frustration is exactly what this mom is allowing her little one to experience as she explores a piece of playground equipment. When her daughter isn’t initially successful, mom stays nearby… but resists the temptation to intervene, allowing her daughter the time and space to figure things out on her own. And in the end, she manages to do just that. Kudos to mom, lizzy_helloworld, who shared this resilient little one on IG. What advice would you share about raising resilient children?

Language has its own special genres. And your toddler is working to master them all. Not long ago, I shared a fantastic video example of a toddler engaged in a pretend phone call. He took conversational turns, laughed at his imaginary partner’s joke, and knew to end the call with a goodbye and pressing the “end call” button on his toy telephone. At less than 2 years old, he had the phone call genre down pat. Here’s another amazing example (shared to IG by walking_faith_4u): the bedtime story. Watch as this little one takes over “reading” duties - turning the tables on her adoring dad. I’ve shared lots of reading videos before, but this one is notable in its complexity. Listen as she uses variegated babbling (which combines a wide variety of syllables and sounds) to recount a lengthy story for dad. Listen as well to the tone and rhythm of her voice. It’s the same soft, flowy, and expressive style he uses to help calm her as she begins preparing to drift off to sleep post story. I’d say this little one has the “bedtime story” genre on lock. Isn’t it amazing to see how children concurrently learn not just language, but the different contexts and styles of its use? Just fantastic.

One of the great gifts you can give your little one is a regular change of scenery. Witness 19-month-old Bonnie’s wide-eyed wonderment as her family explores a nature trail beside a stream. “What’s this?” she asks over and over as she seeks and confirms new information. The experience - and conversation with her parents - exposes her to a wide variety of vocabulary and concepts (nature, pinecone, a stream, a puddle… all new additions to her mental database enabled by a simple family stroll.) As this lovely video illustrates, new experiences needn’t be costly, distant, or exotic to be educational. Indeed, most communities are jammed packed with new things for your toddler to see and do… opportunities that expose them to new experiences and terminology - the grocery store, a laundromat, a local park, the library. Step out of your daily routine. It will light up your baby’s brain. 🧠 This inquisitive little one was shared to IG by rileykayscott.

Talk about wonderment! 🐠 One of the most important and educational things you can do for your baby is expose them to a wide variety of sensory experiences. New sights, sounds, textures, smells, and (as your baby is ready) tastes. I just love this video of a five-month-old’s first visit to an aquarium. It’s like you can see his brain lighting up… his eyes wide and his vocalizations a nonstop expression of his joy. But you don’t need access to an aquarium to provide the same benefits. Simply look for opportunities that allow your little one to experience the world from new and interesting vantage points. Visit a park. Explore the grocery store. There’s so much to learn when we help children step outside of their regular day to day experience. Imagine, for example, all the rich, new vocabulary this trip is exposing our hero to as dad describes and names the new sights the pair is seeing. Isn’t the world amazing when we can see it again for the very first time? This awestruck little guy was shared to TT by ritarobalolopes.

It’s the little things that make a difference. 👑 The anticipation of a new sibling can bring a whole range of emotions for toddlers, ranging from excitement to apprehension. Which is why I was so touched by this tender video, depicting not only a first meeting between this little guy and his new sibling, but a collective effort to support big brother. From his “big brother” sweatshirt to his hospital-issued crown, it’s clear that a lot of thought has gone into making this day a special one for our hero. And it’s working. Look at how something as simple as a paper crown influences his spirit. On a day that might otherwise have been stressful, he enters with such pride and wonder. Don’t think he’s proud of that crown? When grandma asks, “what’cha got?!” (meaning the new baby), his first instinct is to show off his hat. Well done all around, grownups. What did you do to make the arrival of a new sibling a special day for their siblings? This sweet video via daytonschmit on IG.

It’s like looking in a mirror. 🪞 Check out the joint attention between this little one (10 weeks) and her big brother - who’s teaching an absolute master class in how to stimulate baby’s brain. I mean, are these two locked in or what? Brother is at baby’s level, up close, face-to-face and grinning from ear to ear. Their eye contact is unbroken. No distractions… just them. And he’s mirroring her vocalizations in a way that’s obviously thrilling for baby. Look at her face light up. It’s a great reminder that parents aren’t the only ones who can engage in serve and return interactions. Just beautiful. This sweet duo was shared to TT by gillianmccreery.

As a parent, lap reading is a joy. It’s a chance to cuddle your little one, while exposing them to rich vocabulary, concepts of print, and the wonder of books. When it comes to infants, however, lap reading can deprive babies of their favorite (and most important) sight: YOU. Which is why you might want to explore face-to-face reading as well. (With your baby facing toward you and the book simultaneously.) Developmentally, there are multiple benefits to allowing your baby to see you as you read together. Your little one is an expert at “reading” your face. This posture allows your baby to track your eyes to discover what you’re tuning in to. It also allows them to watch your mouth and learn how you’re making the words and sounds that accompany the pictures. This clever little one illustrates the case beautifully, creating a face-to-face experience of her own. Watch as our hero divides her attention between the book (and her important page turning responsibility!) and dad’s face - which she swivels her head to admire with equal (if not greater) interest. Kudos to dad, as well, as he balances book time and face time with his daughter - taking time to honor her interest in connection and observation. The logistics can obviously be a little trickier (consider reading face-to-face as your partner holds baby in their lap as one potential solution) - but the benefits are well worth the effort. Face-to-face reading for the win! This adorable father-daughter duo was shared to IG by mylittlemissameliaa.

Normally broken dogs come into my life and after a few months with us I am just like everybody else following their lives on Instagram. Today was already the highlight of my year as I got to see Bob! Bob was always very special to me as a gentle soul on the streets who I looked forward to seeing every single day with Angelina. My feeding route feels a bit empty without them and there isn’t a day I don’t look at their little spot and think back. We took him through the grief process which was very hard for him but I am so proud of him in his new home. He couldn’t have wished for better parents who dote upon him and his sister is a superstar. I loved watching the new confident Bob strutting around the beach. I’d never seen the side if him on the streets as he was just surviving there. He still loves to look around and see his sister and parents with his little side eye. Bob was always happy to be a pack member and he really has that now. Somewhere up there Angelina is looking down singing a little song for Bob that he is so happy. I didn’t want to wear my new T-Shirt that Matilda got me as it is so special but I figured I won’t have a bigger more exciting thing to go to the meeting Bob! Best. Day. Ever.

A. Fumble 💔

Language has its own special genres. And your toddler is working to master them all. Yesterday I shared a fantastic video example of a toddler engaged in a pretend phone call. He took conversational turns, laughed at his imaginary partner’s joke, and knew to end the call with a goodbye and pressing the “end call” button on his toy telephone. At less than 2 years old, he had the phone call genre down pat. Today here’s another amazing example: the bedtime story. Watch as this little one takes over “reading” duties - turning the tables on her adoring dad. I’ve shared lots of reading videos before, but this one is notable in its complexity. Listen as she uses variegated babbling (remember this from two weeks ago… it’s babbling that combines a wide variety of syllables and sounds) to recount a lengthy story for dad. Listen as well to the tone and rhythm of her voice. It’s the same soft, flowy, and expressive style he uses to help calm her as she begins preparing to drift off to sleep post story. I’d say this little one has the “bedtime story” genre on lock. Isn’t it amazing to see how children concurrently learn not just language, but the different contexts and styles of its use? Just fantastic. This amazing little storyteller was shared to IG by walking_faith_4u.

Tim Tebow explains how to compete with someone for a job without secretly rooting for them to fail: “I would try to show up with the mindset of, ‘I’m competing with Chris Leak, but also for him as a team.’ I’m on his team, and he’s on the same team I’m on.” “When I get to go in the game, I’m trying to do good for him so he gets to come back on the field.” “We’re competing FOR each other.” “Average competitors, and I mean this more in mindset, not talent, want to beat someone when they’re weaker.” “Elite competitors want to beat people at their best.” “I want him to do good. I just want to do better. I’m going to root for him. I’m going to praise him. I’m going to encourage him. I’m going to want the best for him.” “Am I going to want to do great? Yes. But I’m going to choose to root for him. It’s a choice.” “It’s not always emotion. Your emotions, your pride and your ego, it can get to you. Fighting against it is a daily, moment-by-moment thing.”

TRENDING: Fox Sports Radio host Ben Maller went OFF on Nick Sirianni following his contract extension by the Eagles calling him a “pompous a—hole shmuck” “As a talk show host, I love Nick Sirianni. He’s an amateur. He does everything you’re not supposed to do as a grown up and it’s good for talk radio. Fans heckle him and he’s a pompous a—hole shmuck. All the stuff you’re taught not to do, he does, which is really good for what I do… And it’s fine if the Eagles are winning but it’s not going to last.” (Via: FOX Sports Radio)
