Linda Ernst has created programming based on the most important findings in babies' brain development. This new resource is full of activities that stimulate infants and toddlers' cognitive, physical, and emotional growth.

The CD-ROM contains scripts, lyrics, patterns, forms, and posters that can be adapted and easily reproduced. In addition, the book contains suggestions for scheduling, room arrangement, and parent education.
