Before you post those adorable first-day-of-school photos, take a second look.
A child’s name, teacher, grade, school, favorite things, and other personal details may seem innocent—but together they can give someone with bad intentions far more information than they should have.

Celebrate the milestone, but if you want to post your little one online, consider keeping the unique details off social media. Share those memories privately with family and friends instead.

A few small changes today can help protect your child’s privacy tomorrow. 💙

The first five years of a child’s life are a period of rapid brain development, and exposure to language plays an important role in that growth.

When children hear stories, join conversations, and encounter new ideas, their brains form important connections that build knowledge and support future learning.
The key to a strong start? Talk, read, and sing often. 📖
