The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has updated and revised its position statement on media and technology usage by children. Up until recently, their recommendation to parents was no screen time for children under the age of two. Taking into consideration new research and new habits, the AAP is now shifting their focus from <i>what </i>is on the screen to <i>who </i>else is in the room.<br />
<br />
For littles under the age of 18 months, the AAP still says no screens are best, with the exception of live video chat with loved ones. Many families use a live video chat app like Skype to stay in touch with relatives far away. While live social interaction trumps virtual visits with Grandpa, there is some research that says infants as young as six-months old are emotionally-engaged by playing live peekaboo with Grandma on Skype (AAP, 2016).<br />
<br />
What about older toddlers? Aren’t they learning new words and increasing their vocabulary with the Peekaboo Barn and other phone apps? While there can be minimal gains in language development through educational apps, this happens <b>only </b>if adults are sitting alongside them and engaging in app dialogue with their toddler; again, it’s not so much <i>what </i>is on the screen, it’s <i>who </i>else is engaging with the toddler.<br />
<br />
When it comes to preschoolers, content plays a crucial role. Shows like Sesame Street, which address the evolving health and developmental needs of children have been shown to improve cognitive, literacy, and social outcomes for children ages three to five (AAP, 2016). Nonetheless, many preschool apps which are filed under the category of “educational” have no curricular basis, target only rote academic skills, and offer little opportunity for parent-child interaction.<br />
<br />
So, what can parents take away from this progressive revision about screen time?<br />
<ul>
<li>For children under 18 months of age, no screen time is still best.</li>
<li>Adult interaction with children during media use is crucial, especially if you are hoping for positive child development outcomes.</li>
<li>Just because you’re looking in the “education” category in the Apple Store, doesn’t mean it’s an educational app.</li>
<li>One hour of high-quality screen time should be the maximum for children older than age two.</li>
<li>Set limits on screen time for older children. Setting limits teaches children how to gain self-control, which in turn allows them to regulate their behavior so that it is socially acceptable.</li>
<li>Keep mealtimes, bedrooms, and play times screen free.</li>
<li>Turn the screens off at least one hour before bedtime. Exposure to screen media in the evening is associated with shorter sleep duration than those with no evening screen media. </li>
</ul>

year. This goes for both children AND adults! For children, they are
experiencing all of their family’s traditions. For parents and caregivers, they
also have the opportunity to share traditions with their children. As an early
childhood professional, it is easy to get caught up in celebrating a certain
holiday within your classroom or center. It is very important that you are
intentional with your planning and you ensure that all children and their
families are represented appropriately. The most important thing for the
children will be that they see themselves and their families reflected in the
activities and celebrations that you plan. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You want to be sure that the activities you are planning
accurately represent the different ways families may choose to celebrate
different holidays. Here are a few ideas to help you get family members
involved. (Julie Bisson, <i>Celebrate!: An Anti-Bias Guide to Enjoying Holidays</i>)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<ul>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Encourage families to share information about
their holidays and how they celebrate.</b><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"> You will find that most of the
families will share information with you. They will be grateful that they were
included and that you took the time to ask them for specific information.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Ask for activity ideas!</b><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"> Most families will
be more than happy to help you incorporate their holiday into your lesson
plans. Ask them if there are any fun activities or games they think would be
appropriate for the age group you work with.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Invite family members in to share a story or
activity with your class.</b><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"> It’s always great for kids to get a different
perspective straight from the source, and little ones will have a sense of
pride when their own family members can participate.</span></li>
</ul>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-left: .75in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is also important to remember that December isn’t the
only month in which holidays take place. If you have children in your care that
celebrate holidays in other months, recognize and include those holidays in
your plans. Give equal emphasis to all holidays celebrated within your group of
children to help them feel respected and included. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Remember, the “Holiday Season” is not the only time you
should celebrate diversity. Your classroom should represent many different
cultures year round. Post pictures of the children and their families on the
wall, place books on the shelf that are culturally diverse, and talk about the different
kinds of family units present in your classroom. Do your homework so you
know the information you give the children is accurate.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Holidays are incredibly important and personal for the
families that celebrate them. Taking that extra step and incorporating ALL of
the holidays the children in your care celebrate will really go a long way.
Enjoy the fun and excitement that will come with the children getting the
opportunity to share their traditions with you and the class. Happy Holidays! <o:p></o:p><br />

<i>Vicki Lehman is our

on long car rides as the holiday season approaches.</i><o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6EpShE5XJbMq2cvd5-WGBRaWDr1ZBNusGpnN6ztlOWr5DLeGpB6sF-mhQnOi2pb2_RsmK1Ct7qRijZ_ySQUDBFlhocVfra_3dqG62l05c_DhGiWm7yDBwN3uIDlLHbbYkbJbBNpzq1Xfc/s1600/5122362560_d195806c96_z.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img style="float:right; margin-left:20px" border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6EpShE5XJbMq2cvd5-WGBRaWDr1ZBNusGpnN6ztlOWr5DLeGpB6sF-mhQnOi2pb2_RsmK1Ct7qRijZ_ySQUDBFlhocVfra_3dqG62l05c_DhGiWm7yDBwN3uIDlLHbbYkbJbBNpzq1Xfc/s320/5122362560_d195806c96_z.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Young children can be very impatient sometimes. Keeping them
in a happy and content state on long car rides or trips can be tricky! Make
sure you are as prepared as possible - the worst thing would be for you to get
an hour into a three-hour car ride and realize you didn’t bring enough “stuff”
with you to keep them busy. Hopefully you can use these ideas on those long journeys
to visit family and friends.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My first suggestion is to create a “busy box”. You can put
all types of things in the box (or bag, or container, or whatever works best
for you and your children). Some ideas to get you started:</div>
<ul>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Books</b><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
– Books they are interested in, books they have never looked at before, books
specific to the season/time of year.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Paper and
Crayons/Markers</b><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"> – You may want to include a clipboard as well. You can take
this one step further and ask them to draw what they see outside. For easy
clean-up, choose marker and paper sets that ONLY draw on the paper and not on
anything else. That could save your car seat from being “decorated.”</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Your
Child’s Favorite Kind of Toy</b><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"> – This will vary on what interests your child
- cars, dolls, action figures, Duplos.</span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"> </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Be
intentional about what kind of toys you put in the box. Lots of little pieces will
of course end up ALL over the car and you will be finding them for months!</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Whatever
else you think you need…then add one more </b><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"> </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">- Pack according to the amount of time you
will be in the car…and then add some! </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"> </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">It
never hurts to be over-prepared. Also, don’t forget about the return trip!</span></li>
</ul>
Of course you always want to make sure you have snacks!
Snacks are a very important part of a young child’s day. I have a fun
suggestion; buy a small plastic tackle box and fill it with different snacks. Of course, make sure it is safe and you clean
it before you use it. You can put things like fresh fruits and veggies in the
larger sections and then put the more “yummy” treats (marshmallows, chocolate
chips…) in the smaller sections. This gives them a lot of variety and kind of
changes things up a bit.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Like I said, young preschoolers can be impatient and that
can make long trips a bit stressful for all involved, BUT, if you prepare
yourself, things can go very well. Spending long amounts of time in the car
also leaves you with the opportunity to talk to one another. You can talk about
where you are going, what you are going to do when you get there, or just about
life in general. There is a lot of time when you are in the car to make some
very strong connections and communicate with your child. So, take some time to
prepare and enjoy that time you have with them. Young children often have some
very funny and insightful things to say if you just listen to them. Their view
on the world helps put things into perspective sometimes. So go and enjoy your
time together - they are only young once.

<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Loose sheets</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"> - Loose fitting
sheets are one of the biggest violations Lauren and Katherine see. When
looking for sheets, it is always best to try one before purchasing for the
entire facility. In general, avoid jersey fabric sheets. Good-fitting full-size crib sheets are
typically easy to find, but sheets that are tight fitting and don’t roll the
mattress can be difficult to find for pack-and-plays and porta-cribs. . Pack-and-play
sheets should be the “Pack-and-Play” brand quilted sheet. Recommended brands
for porta-crib sheet include Koala (Walmart), Babies-R-Us, and American Baby
(Amazon). </span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sleeping in devices
like swings, bouncers, and car seats</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"> - </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;">Infants
should always placed to sleep on a firm sleep surface, such as a
safety-approved crib mattress, in a safety-approved crib, porta-crib, or play
yard. If the infant falls asleep in another surface (carrier, car seat, swing)
immediately remove him/her and place in a safety approved crib, porta-crib, or
pack-and-play.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sleeping with bibs,
pacifier cords, or wubanubs</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"> – These devices may cover the face or present a
strangulation hazard. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;">Crib gyms, crib toys, mobiles, mirrors, and
all objects/toys are prohibited in or attached to an infant’s crib. Y</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;">ou should not clip or
attach p</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;">acifiers to the infant or the
crib.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Blankets in the crib – </b><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Keep all blankets, pillows, quilts, and bumpers out of
the infant’s sleep area. Instead of a blanket, place the infant to sleep in
sleep clothing such as a one-piece sleeper. Do not swaddle infants using
blankets - swaddling is not recommended in child care.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Stomach sleeping</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"> - Infants under one
year of age are always placed on their <b>backs</b> to sleep, for naps and at night. Although common myths may lead people
to believe stomach sleeping avoids choking, studies show that babies may
actually clear secretions better when placed on their backs.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Medical device used
without Medical Waiver Form - </span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: -0.25in;">Unless a doctor specifies the need for a
positioning device that restricts movement within the child’s crib, do not use
these devices. This must be written on the Medical Waiver and completed/signed
from the physician.</span></li>

economic opportunity, disaster services, healthy futures, environmental
stewardship, and veteran/military family assistance.<br />
<br />
At Child Care Answers, we celebrated with our AmeriCorps members in Indianapolis and across the state who are
serving in child care programs by offering family engagement. They serve as a bridge between home and school, and they assist with school
readiness for pre-K children and their families. These members are truly living out the AmeriCorps motto of "Getting Things Done!"<br />

<b><span style="color: black; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 10pt;">In many fields, the transition from
student to professional can be daunting. In the early childhood field, this
is further complicated by the perception that early childhood is not a
professional career. While this perception is changing as national and state
initiatives focus on professionalizing the field and increasing quality, there
is much more work to be done. Changing this perception begins with early
childhood teachers themselves. Being prepared to present yourself
professionally, meeting the professional expectations of typical ECE careers,
and having a long-term plan for your career path are essential strategies to
turning a childcare teacher job into an early childhood professional career.</span></b><o:p></o:p></div>

power struggles, set realistic expectations for young children and
communicate this information to parents. When expectations are age
appropriate, teachers can learn how to be instructive rather than punitive.
Discover what young children realistically can and cannot do, the benefits of
“time in”rather than “time out”, the physiology of tantrums and more as we
work to add to our understanding of behavior. Discipline can be a positive

child engagement in learning as an indicator of program quality. In this
interactive session participants will learn how to define and identify the
types and quality of a child's engagement with adults, peers, play activities
and instructional tasks. Typical classroom activities will be analyzed and
discussed to broaden and deepen participant understanding of how best to
support and promote high quality child engagement in learning. </span></b><o:p></o:p></div>
