Beginning January
2009, The
All-Ways Growing, A
Baby Book provided
by the collaborative
efforts of Macomb's
Early Childhood
Community, will
be mailed out to all
families with a
newborn baby.
The book is not only
a place to store
precious memories of
you baby's early
childhood, but it is
a guide for
information on
developmental
milestones and
activities to
support children's
development. |
At

you’ll find
science-based
information and
tools
designed to help
parents and
caregivers nurture
their young
children’s
development. |

Visit the
CDC for
information on child
development. The
early years of a
child's life are
crucial for
cognitive, social
and emotional
development.
Therefore, it is
important that we
take every step
necessary to ensure
that children grow
up in environments
where their social,
emotional and
educational needs
are met.
