They say “poor Black and Latino children don’t need play, they need academics. And that’s the mantra.” And yet everything we know says that’s incorrect. https://t.co/pR4aJzbp5l

Early life social factors can be changed, which means we can change trajectories of cognitive development and enable poor children achieve their human potential in adulthood.

The #children are depending on us and our society will benefit greatly when the understanding of early #braindevelopment finally becomes common knowledge! #EarlyChildhood #MentalHealthAwareness

Talk, talk, TALK! Talk is a great way for children to learn new words and ideas. Simple talking games are fun and don't need any resources. Try playing 'What am I...?' with your child! #EveryWeekCounts #StayHomeSA @BridgeProjectSA @ECDAction @UNICEFEducation @DBE_SA @CECD_online
