Child development research

There's lots of research about child development and science is adding to what we know. 

There are lots of places to find ideas and advice for parents. Here are some that we like:

Unicef and The Baby Friendly Initiative is worldwide. They publish an interesting myth-busting guide:

• Building a Happy Baby: A guide for parents

For information about child development, read:

• Information for parents - Birth To 5 Matters
• What to expect in the Early Years Foundation Stage: a guide for parents

For every day ideas for learning at home, take a look at: 

• Every Day's a Learning Day 0-3 years
• Every Day's a Learning Day 3-6 years

Save the Children launched a campaign in 2016, to raise awareness of the importance of children's early development:

• Lighting up young brains

In July 2019, the Department for Education launched the Hungry Little Minds campaign. You can get tips and activities from the Hungry Little Minds website.
