The Difference We Make: The Importance of Simple, Everyday Interactions in Early Childhood
In this episode of the Early Childhood Investigations Webinar series, Dr. Winters and Dr. Li provide an overview of the Simple Interactions work as a response to Fred Rogers’ question to the early childhood profession: “Did you ever wonder if you have made a difference?” This free webinar is generously hosted and shared without charge by the wonderful hosts at Early Childhood Investigations, where you may find many more free, accessible webinars for early childhood professionals.
Talking to Children about Difficult Things in the News
During times of tragedy and difficulty in the news, it can be difficult to know whether and how to talk to children about what is happening in their world. In this resource we offer ideas and support for guiding children through news about difficult current events.
Educators in all sorts of settings may work with adoptive, foster, and kinship families, and the children within them. The lessons within this resource are to support those educators, as they in turn support these children and families.
Your financial support of the Institute helps us expand our initiatives and resources so that educators and children's helpers can continue to learn and grow from Fred Rogers' legacy. Thank you!
