I decided to subscribe to the Zero to Three organization and newsletter.
The website is: http://www.zerotothree.org/
As the website states, the mission of the Zero to Three Journal is:
"ZERO TO THREE is a national, nonprofit organization that informs, trains,
and supports professionals, policymakers, and parents in their efforts
to improve the lives of infants and toddlers.Our mission is to promote the health and development of infants and toddlers."
"ZERO TO THREE is unique in our multidisciplinary
approach to child development. Our emphasis on bringing together the
perspectives of many fields and many specialists is rooted in the robust
research studies showing that all domains of development—social,
emotional, intellectual, language and physical—are interdependent and
work together to promote a child’s overall health and well-being in the
context of his family and culture."
I enjoy the Zero to Three Journal because it not only talks about behavior, development, care, and education, but it also incorporates a section on policies that pertain to Early Childhood Development. Also, I am a fan of Dr. Brazelton's work and his books and teachings are featured on the Zero to Three homepage. In addition, I was excited to see that their parenting podcasts, called Little Kids, Big Questions, are now offered in Spanish and English.
Furthermore, I have children of my own that are in the zero to three age range, so I feel that I have a lot to learn from the articles and podcasts.
I am of fan of Dr. Brazelton and his work. I first listened to him on Good Morning America when my son was an infant. He is 31 now, wow how time flys. It seems in early childhood education that we stick around for along time.
