Beautiful Beginnings

Developed by two early childhood research and training/technical assistance consultants, this extensive curriculum - divided into six age ranges between birth and 3 years - takes an activity-based approach to enhancing the development of infants and toddlers. This research-supported program gives parents and professionals more than 350 photocopiable activities that build on each child's natural strengths and interests, recognize and expand on emerging developments, and encourage progress in areas of concern. This curriculum is ideal for use in a variety of early childhood programs and settings such as Early Head Start, center-based care, home visits, programs for teenage student-parents, and other parent education programs. Fun for both children and parents, Beautiful Beginnings is the key to helping young children meet developmental goals and enhancing their school readiness.
