While I was shopping today with my 2 and 5 year old (always a pleasant experience!), my 5 year old was sneaking around the corners of the store and hidng everywhere. Turns out he was pretending to be an explorer like Dora the Explorer! It made me smile amidst the spilled drink on the ground in front of me and the crying 2 year old who had lost said drink.
And it reminded me of this great infographic from educationnews.org. Isn't it so much nicer to learn something in a graphic than from boring text?! As I've mentioned many times over, too much tv (especially close to bedtime) or the wrong kind of tv (nightmares anyone?) isn't great for sleep. And it isn't so great for other areas of development either...

This is a good info graphic!
ReplyDeleteYeah Sharon, interesting stuff huh. Kind of assumed some of this, but it's nice to see some stats behind it.

Hey Rachel! I just found your blog on an internet search. I knew it what was here before, but I didn't have kids at the time, so it wasn't very useful for me. ;-) What wonderful information! Keep up the great work. :-)
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you Naomi! You get to call me with questions anytime too, you know :) Have fun with your little guy! He's a cutie!
