During the early years, children make
leaps in physical, motor, social, emotional,
language and cognitive skills development.
The role of parents and key caregivers is
primary for these developments. Parents
provide cognitive and linguistic experiences
through activities such as talking with
children, singing, storytelling, looking at
books and encouraging communication.
When parents hug and cuddle their
children, they exhibit warmth and affection,
influencing their children’s development
of relationships and emotional well-being.
By providing consistency in daily routines
and opportunities for healthy growth and
development, parents nurture development.
