Learning Resources for Age 2 | PBS KIDS for Parents

Learning Resources for Age 2 | PBS KIDS for Parents: Two-year-olds are delightfully curious. They love to push buttons, wiggle their bodies and use all their senses to figure out how things work. Imagine the world through their eyes: so much of what they encounter is new and exciting . . . and sometimes overwhelming! They have big emotions, but they don’t yet have all the words to express their thoughts. Caring adults can help them feel secure as they grow and explore their world.

Words of Inspiration and Motivation: ZERO TO THREE.

 “When I think of the word passion and the meaning to the word passion, what comes to mind are what are my values, what are my beliefs, what are the ideas that lead me to action, what do I do so naturally that perhaps seems natural to me but may be challenging to others? What’s in my heart?”

—Leticia Lara, LCSW, Regional Manager 
for Outreach and Professional Development for ZERO TO THREE

“I see adults finding their voice as a result of doing this work it’s like they reclaim and heal things that happened to them in their childhood that make me not one had help them work with when they were younger so the passion to create a safer, more just world for all the kids is there and I suppose 
I will be there until I die, maybe even after.
