New Year, Same Cute Baby! 5 Ways To Help Baby Learn and Grow This Year
The new year encourages people to look towards the future. The school year is already half over and it’s not too early for parents to start thinking about summer camps, family vacations, and preparing their child to succeed in the year ahead.
At Pathways.org we have many tools to help you learn more about child development, important milestones by age, and fun activities you and your child can do together to achieve those goals.
Use our resources to make this year one of growth and learning for you and your child!
Baby Games Calendar
Discover fun activities to do with baby everyday of the year using our Baby Games Calendar. Just enter your baby’s birth date into the calendar and click “update.” The calendar lets you look ahead to see the next milestones your baby should be reaching and provides weekly developmentally friendly games to play with baby to help them reach those goals. Not only will these games help baby improve their sensory, motor, and communication development, they provide a fun bonding experience for both of you!
Track Your Child’s Development With our Milestone Checklists
Do you wonder if your child’s meeting milestones developed by the American Academy of Pediatrics? Check out the “All Developmental Milestones” section of our website to learn more about motor, sensory, and communication development from 0-3 years old. Print out our milestone checklists so you can record each time your child reaches an important goal. These checklists are also great to bring to well-baby visits!
