"It’s time for the district to restore its strong support & funding to keep its remarkable program moving forward... Otherwise, this is not just a failure for D.C. educators & families, but for educators across the US."

"This episode of Bluey is called Podcast."

Listen to @blueypodcast @mscott6399 @AGastonPanthaki and me discuss the many ways that Bluey shows the value of play for young children. We had so much fun playing podcast!

Did you know that playing music can improve children’s executive functioning skills? Researchers have found that music training can enhance cognitive functions, including attention, impulse control, and working memory. So, why not grab an instrument and start jamming today? 🎶💪

@OfficialBlueyTV 's a great show for sharing with caregivers the value of play, multigenerational relationships, and emotion regulation. It's so great that we wrote an article about just that. Check it out!

[Molly Scott @mscott6399]
