CAREGIVER EDUCATION
Providing educational resources to caregivers is one of the ways that we can support you as your child's first teacher. There are thousands of parent education and caregiver articles out there. It can be a lot to try to find the right resources from the right places. That is where we come in to help. The Project ABC team carefully researches, curates, and updates this list of educational articles on a monthly basis. Often, this list will be updated with articles relevant to the themes we explore in our Play, Learn, and Grow playgroup series. We also keep hard copies of featured articles on display at every playgroup so be sure to check them out!
