How do I know if my child is ready for kindergarten? How can children learn through play? Does nutrition, sleep, and activity really matter when kids are so young? I think my child might be neurodivergent. What should I do about it? What are magnet, charter, and private schools? And how do I choose what’s best?
In this series, we include interviews with experts in early childhood education, psychology, and pediatrics to discuss topics including the importance of play, managing toddler behavior, language and motor development, Kindergarten readiness, how to set up routines, and parent mental wellness.
Hosted by Dr. Emily King.

Supporting Social Skills Development, with Christine Burkhart
We expect children to develop physical, mental, and emotional skills, but that won't happen unless the child feels safe. And in order to feel safe, there needs to be a connection. But what does that mean? And can there be a true connection even before the child is talking?
Today we're talking all things social skills, with Christine Burkhart, the owner of Building Connections, which empowers children of all abilities.
