Noticing Same and Different: The Concept of Comparison with Infants and Toddlers | “More” is often one of children’s first words. Infants attend to differences, though they don’t yet discriminate between “more” as quantity or magnitude/size or intensity of sensation. Toddlers are beginning to differentiate between attributes and develop a spectrum of preferences. These are all examples of the origins of the precursor math concept of Comparison, that is noticing sameness and difference."

Nurturing Gratitude in Young Children | Children aren’t always appreciative, and their demands can hit especially hard when we’re working long hours—or just trying to get dinner on the table. While young children can’t yet see the world from somebody else’s perspective, we can begin to build a sense of gratitude starting in the toddler years. | Document |
Nurturing Parenting | The Nurturing Parenting Programs are a family-centered initiative designed to build nurturing parenting skills as an alternative to abusive and neglecting parenting and child-rearing practices. The long term goals are to prevent recidivism in families receiving social services, lower the rate of multiparent teenage pregnancies, reduce the rate of juvenile delinquency and alcohol abuse, and stop the intergenerational cycle of child abuse by teaching positive parenting behaviors. | Website |

Nutrition and Oral Health for Children | In 2000, the Pacific West MCH Distance Learning Network was established in response to the identified training needs of maternal and child health (MCH) practitioners providing nutrition services in the Pacific West, and to the continuing education priority established in maternal and child nutrition. Activities included development of a distance learning curriculum, Nutrition for Children with Special Health Care Needs, and a 4-hour videoteleconference. The Advisory Group overseeing this project included nutritionists from state Title V in HRSA Regions IX (Arizona, California, Hawaii, and Nevada) and X (Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington) who have been involved in nutrition training activities coordinated by the University of Southern California?s University Affiliated Program and the University of Washington?s Center on Human Development and Disability. In 2002, the Advisory Group [link] was expanded to included practitioners from other western states (Colorado, Montana, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming) and to include oral health experts. Nutrition for Children with Special Health Care Needs was converted from a CD-ROM to a web-based format, and another web-based curriculum, Nutrition and Oral Health for Children, was developed. In addition, 4 group-study modules were developed and delivered to audiences in the Pacific West region. A brochure describing these curricula is available. | Website |
