Zero To Three: National Center for Infants, Toddlers, and Families
http://www.zerotothree.org/

ZERO TO THREE is a national, nonprofit organization that informs, trains, and supports professionals, policymakers, and parents in their efforts to improve the lives of infants and toddlers. The mission is to promote the health and development of infants and toddlers.

The newsletter of the podcast that caught my eye was the feeding of young children. I recently had a child age of 2 that was enrolled into my class because she was consider as a failure to thrive baby. The first time I observe the child eating I thought she was doing a wonderful job for her size. She is a Asian which I think is the reason of her side but I thought it was informative information for me to listen to the podcast to get more information about feeding and why and how babies chose to eat certain foods.
I learned many different things from when it comes to feeding children and the most important is the parent and child relationship from birth. It’s important for us to interact with the children while they are eating and model positive feeding habits. Most of these things are known but making sure that as a teacher we need to make sure we are doing these things.
