Yes sir!

Get a load of this joyful little comedian!

Researchers at the University of Bristol (UK) recently created the Early Humor Survey to explore how humor develops in very young children.

They found that roughly half of the babies in the tool’s data set showed an appreciation for humor by 2 months of age - and that by 11 months, roughly half of the babies began to experiment with making their own jokes. https://t.co/1EOnn7CDgO

Yes! Get books in the hands of children as soon as they can hold one! (And before that, hold it for them!).

[Dan Wuori @DanWuori]

Literacy is a developmental process that begins long before your child ever sets foot in a kindergarten classroom. It’s literally never too early to begin exposing your child to the wonders of reading.

(This book is Geno the Giant, btw, which is the phrase he keeps repeating.)

This sweet family playtime is also chock full of bilingual learning for baby Emmy.

They talk about it; we do it! See Cheryl Spraetz, Marty Fisher, Sarah Sharp: Our entire community benefits from quality early childhood education https://t.co/kDldxoT4Aj

Language and literacy develop on a continuum that begins long before kindergarten. Check out baby Grayson, whose dad is already already helping him to establish that print contains meaning. 🥇

Lawmakers must work now to strengthen and invest in our existing core federal #childcare program – CCDBG – before it’s too late.

Contact your lawmakers & tell them they must work to double CCDBG funding TODAY! https://t.co/QtN72otTY0
