What if I was to tell you that a game of peek-a-boo could change the world?
In honor of the Week of the Young Child, I'm sharing a Ted Talk by 7-year-old Molly Wright. She asks, "What if I was to tell you that a game of peek-a-boo could change the world?" Her neighbor, young Ari, helps Molly demonstrate the importance of play. To check out Molly's Ted Talk, click here.
How are we celebrating the Week of the Young Child? Harford County Public Schools is sponsoring this week's Thrive by Five Early Childhood Summit, featuring 19 sessions on topics ranging from potty training to school readiness. Registration is already closed, however sessions will be recorded and made available to those who could not participate.
