Losses including relationships, predictability, and loved ones deeply impact children's social-emotional and overall development. Recognizing these effects and providing necessary support is vital for nurturing all children. #children #teachereducation #earlychildhood #grief

I’ve been keeping an exciting secret that I’m finally ready to share:

My first book, The Daycare Myth: What We Get Wrong About Early Care and Education (and What We Should Do About It), will be published this fall by @TCPress at @Columbia University.

Focused on the disconnect between what we know (about the science of early development and the importance of the early years) and our nation’s public policy for children, it’s my hope that the book will spark a long-overdue, bipartisan conversation about the consequences of our inaction and how we might do better by our youngest.

Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, early childhood educator, policymaker…or a taxpayer interested in learning why the nation’s failed approach to early childhood is costing each and every one of us an untold fortune, you’re going to want to check it out.

Publication is still a few months off, but pre-orders are live NOW. You can order at the link in the first reply below.

To celebrate the launch, I have a special offer:

The first 100 verified pre-orders will receive a personally inscribed bookplate (to be mailed the week before release).

Details with the link below.

Writing this book has been a real labor of love. I couldn’t be more excited to share it with you at last.

Thank you for your support, today and always. I so love the community we’ve built here on X.

If you’d repost this to help spread the word I’d be so grateful.

Did you know that your baby learns important lessons from your eyes? 👀

Only hours after birth, babies begin fixating on the faces of their significant caregivers.

But due to poor visual acuity what they see initially is primarily their outlines - and mostly in black and white.

As their vision improves over the first weeks of life, their gaze turns more intentionally toward the eyes.

Shared gaze between mother and child is a critical part of bonding and attachment. (The same holds true for you, Dad.)

Your eyes provide important cues about your emotional state (which, in turn, influences your baby’s own) and teach lessons about who is a trusted caregiver, provider, and loved one.

So make sure you’re dedicating time to staring right back.

This adoring little one only has eyes for mom.

Notice how his gaze is never broken, even as Dad prompts a smile by stroking his head.

That’s the look of love.

Mr. Rogers once said, “Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children, play is serious learning.” Educator @natcatlett shows that during PD, play can bring about serious learning in adults, too.

Grief is not an emotion to move on from. It’s a reality to move forward with.

Coping is not about forgetting those we love. It’s about finding ways to keep their memory alive.

We pay respects by leading a life that honors their legacy.

On modeling self-regulation through tone of voice: “The sweet spot is calm, neutral, assertive, and the teachers who get the best responses from kids are the ones that have mastered that the best," says Cynthia Robinson-Rivers of Van Ness Elementary in Washington, DC.
