Join families from around the country in urging Congress to #ThinkBabies and prioritize what young children need: https://t.co/eu2mODHKJA

When we asked families what they wanted from policymakers, they sent a clear message: make babies and families a top priority by advancing policies that equitably distribute resources, remove barriers, and create opportunities for their youngest constituents and their families.

Parents take note: access to too many toys might actually stunt young children’s play. Research suggests that too many toys can be distracting and lead to less engagement and creativity. Save that money for college. https://t.co/ZDi50WUCwg

Learning begins long before kindergarten. How early? Evidence suggests that babies begin learning language in utero, with newborns already able to distinguish their mothers’ native languages at birth.

We need more of this: This month the Nevada legislature welcomed five new lawmakers with public school teaching or school board experience. @NicholasFerroni #edutwitter https://t.co/B9nu9nJWwe

On-demand standardized testing has no place in kindergarten. There are far more appropriate and meaningful methods of assessing young children.

Be weary of anyone who calls themselves “balanced” because they take the “best of all programs”…they are just using a buzzword and their exercise is not backed by the science

It’s a national crisis.Most school districts use some type of BL program to teach reading.Yet these are the results the data is https://t.co/RoBtTvB2Gu isn’t the kids. It is us & what we are doing.
Ed. leaders need to leave the echo chamber that is fueled by great marketing.

[Ms. Benison- @BenisonMrs]

So yesterday the superintendent of the school district where my kids attend school invited me to meet with him.
I have accepted the invitation. Feeling nervous and excited all at once.
Tips and suggestions are welcomed.
What’s the purpose of knowledge if we do nothing with it?

Australia’s Molly Wright was only 7 years old when she became the youngest-ever TED speaker - unpacking how parents can support early brain development. Loads of important lessons here.

“We don’t have to see it as a choice between play or academics, play should be academics for preschoolers.” - @NAEYC’s Alissa Mwenelupembe https://t.co/AFz6Ypa5l1

The science is clear: Infant-toddler teachers are brain builders, not babysitters. The sooner public policy, training, and compensation catch up with this truth the better.
