Big thanks to Helen Muscato for welcoming me to speak at the NJAEYC Conference. We are excited to share about IM4U Learning, and we honor your excellent work in education!

Quarantine Activity: Encourage your child to remember the principle “We all have power” by listing your family’s superpowers! What superpowers does your family use?

When children feel supported to speak in their own way, they build skills of self-esteem, self-awareness, and self-advocacy. The “Speak Up” song reminds your child that they have a voice— they can share what they see and ask for what they need.

Lessons in quarantine: We all have power! During this time at home, remind your child that they have power--unique gifts and talents--that can be used to make the world a brighter place.

Quarantine Activity: Help your child to understand the principle “We all are valuable” by brainstorming a “Valuable List” for the family. Gather the family together to discuss ideas for the ways they can offer something of value in your home!

Children can learn that their presence influences what others feel, do, or say. The “Lonely Broccoli” song dives into the principle that we all are valuable and covers the topics of inclusion and empathy for others. Watch now on our YouTube channel via https://t.co/HPmjtags3o.

Lessons in quarantine: We are all valuable! Every person has an important role to play in their community--especially during this time spent at home. One important contribution that you can remind your child of is to stay at home to promote health and safety.

Quarantine Activity: Reinforce the principle "we all are learning for your child by creating a treasure hunt! Hide clues around the house. In the last place, leave a treasure, such as an appreciative note from Dad or Mom, something yummy and nutritious your child enjoys!

[IM4U Learning @IM4Ulearning]

Learning is unique for everyone! The “Funky As A Diaper” song illustrates the learning process and perseverance by taking a lighthearted look at how all of us went through stages of trial and error as we learned to walk (in our diapers!)

Lessons in quarantine: We all are learning! During our time at home, we're discovering new ways to stay entertained and connected with others. From building with blocks to navigating online education platforms, your young child is learning in a time of next-generation innovators.

[IM4U Learning @IM4Ulearning]

Quarantine Activity: While at home, give your child a big “yay!” when you see them use their strengths. Say “oops!” when a mistake happens and ask your child what they could do differently if the same situation occurs again. Focus on what they can learn from the experience.

[IM4U Learning @IM4Ulearning]

In the Oops and Yays song, your child can explore the feelings that arise when they meet a challenge, when their weaknesses deter them from learning or accomplishing a task, or when they make a mistake. Watch the full video on youtube: https://t.co/HPmjtags3o

Quarantine Activity: Here’s an activity you can try with your children to help teach that we are all connected: Ask them to remember getting ready for school. Who helped them get dressed? Who made them breakfast? Who drove the bus to pick them up? Who met them at the door?

[IM4U Learning @IM4Ulearning]

We are all connected, even when we can’t see each other. Jim sings the IM4U song that celebrates this lesson. Share this with the children in your life! Watch on YouTube: https://t.co/6XAlRom4sx

Lessons in quarantine: We are all connected!
When we see how connected we all really are, we can go from feelings of isolation to a sense of belonging and purpose, and we can appreciate and even celebrate our differences.
