One of the best things you can do for your child is read with them, and it's never too early to start--90% of brain growth takes place in the first five years of life. #FamilyLiteracyDay

So many great presenters, but I felt that the two panel discussions were eye-openers. Experiences of those communities should encourage others that real progress is possible. #ThrivingChildren

The @nebcommfound uses a concept to debrief after an event or conference called “left hand column.” Meaning, what are the take aways or aha moments you wrote on your notepad? What did you take away from the #ThrivingChildren event? Share with the #ThrivingChildren community!
