🌺Month of the Young Child happens every April. It is a special time to celebrate children from birth to age 8 and the adults who help them grow.
Think of it as a giant "thank you" to the little kids in our lives and a reminder that their first few years are the most important for their brains and futures.
🎉How is it celebrated?
Many communities follow the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) and celebrate with a "Week of the Young Child," which has fun daily themes like:
🎵Music Monday: Singing and dancing together.
🥗Tasty Tuesday: Cooking healthy snacks.
💌Artsy Thursday: Getting messy with paint and crafts.
🎳Family Friday: Celebrating the special bond between kids and their parents
