Please share far and wide about this 6 week course I'm running soon. For parents of #teenagers to learn some of the science, reflect about their past and be part of a supportive group. Run through @connectedlives1 so free places available if needed.
Today marks the 1000 days since Afghan girls were first denied their basic human right to education. We cannot stay silent.

Consider, for a moment, just how much there is to learn as a tiny human.
Over a period of months, infants and toddlers begin to master language, how to use their bodies to move and accomplish their goals, and so much more… including their culture’s unique social conventions.

Always such a pleasure to work with you @LCFaith Collaborating with you is a highlight of my week. Especially when we start delving into kid drawn pics …
When you collaborate with your awesome writing partner, @CarolAnneBush, on a few of your fave slides and suddenly adding goofy kid drawings makes your inspiration and joy live more than ever. #Grateful We can always do better - collaborating is my fave #strat.
