Watch the video below! This explains children and their BIG feelings. Young children are still trying to learn how to understand, control, and cope with their feelings. We as adults, parents, and caregivers still struggle at times with our feelings and need to keep this in mind when the child in our life has their next "fit". https://vimeo.com/136542833?ref=fb-share&fbclid=IwAR3ERra7yEA6sBVCw4jHSkkGUUe3QKihgtOSKhVl2mdGORlf9n7jlHLCIU8

Can you spot🔎 the three things that make this #TummyTime session fun for baby? 1️⃣ Sibling involvement. Who doesn't love hanging out and chatting it up with an older sibling? 2️⃣ Getting down on the floor at baby's eye level. Babies love faces! 3️⃣ Toys. Place baby's favorite toys or fun new toys within reaching distance. ➡️ More tips to making Tummy Time sessions a success: This information can be found at --https://pathways.org/topics-of-development/tummy-time/#5

NEW LOCATION - ONE DAY A WEEK (Wednesdays) What a great opportunity to get signed up for WIC and also get your kiddos caught up on those immunizations!! The Greene County Health Department will be set up at Dr.Voigts old office to make it more accessible for North Greene area families. Please take advantage of this wonderful service and hopefully the opportunity will show that there is a need for a location in Roodhouse. original article - https://wlds.com/greene-co-health-dept-temporarily-expands-wic-and-vaccination-clinic-into-roodhouse/?fbclid=IwAR3lWDVYmnOSomXFf72J1EEO9j850eMs6dcCVB4QFhDIxa4EJZ10p6jpleo

Have some fun with the kids indoors, making bird feeders out of pine cones! -Tie a string to the pine cone to hang it outside when finished. -Have your child roll the pine cone in peanut butter or honey. (They can also use a spoon or other utensil to spread it on.) -Then have your child roll the pine cone in birdseed. *For this activity you can buy pine cones at the store or you and your child can look outside for some! If you want another option other than pine cones, you can also use old toilet paper rolls! This can be a messy activity, but messy is GOOD! This is a great sensory activity for those little fingers! 😊

January is National Bath Safety Month --Never leave children under 4 years old alone in the tub. Accidents can happen in an instant. --Always wait until the tub is finished filling before putting your child in because the temperature can change as it fills. --Beware of sharp edges, especially with kids. Use a rubber cover for the faucet and avoid hard bath toys. --This information can be found at the website: https://blog.healthalliance.org/national-bath-safety-month/
