When I Think of Child Development.........

When I watch this video I can see the things that we learned in the Child Development class in action. It is clear that they have parents who model communication and language skills to them. You can clearly see the importance of social interaction, communication, language and cognitive development.  It begins early in life and that is why it is important for parents and teachers to work together to foster this positive development.



A child's greatest achievements are possible in play, achievements that tomorrow will become her basic level of real action and morality. ~ Lev Vygotsky, Mind in Society
