From Annette Coultas, the award winning educator and experienced parent, comes Parenting Matters - Educational Ideas for Parents to Help Your Child Learn. With one quick download, you receive over 200 ideas, tips, and strategies to help your 1-3 year old learn and grow. Building a strong foundation for your child has never been easier or more convenient.

Are you a new parent, unsure of the right things to do with your toddler? Do you want to give your child every advantage? At any moment, you can take out your phone and check one of the tips, great for when you are at the park, in heavy traffic, at the store, and just about anywhere, as long as your phone has some battery life.

It is very important to be an active parent and support the growth of your child at an early age. Parenting Matters is an easy to use app that will help you do just that. Developing skills can be a broad term. Does one focus supersede another? Are there activities that combine multiple developments into one? The answer to both is yes. All of that will be covered, and so much more.

It is never too early to begin teaching toddlers the basics of things that will put them ahead of the curve. It’s hard to imagine the little one all grown up and starting school, much less becoming their own person, but it will happen. Topics and categories included cover the educational and social spectrum:
- Daily Routines
- General Skills
- Math, Reading, and the Alphabet
- Social Interaction
- Manners
- Empathy and Problem Solving

The best part about the activities to help development is the fact that they are cloaked in fun and excitement, for both the toddler and the parent.

Whether the weather is cold or hot, whether you are indoors or out, we have playtime activities that help with all aspects of growth, mentally, physically, and emotionally. There is not an activity or approach listed that does not benefit some sort of aspect of the child’s development. Even something as simple as memorizing and reciting nursery rhymes, the alphabet, or small stories can be extraordinarily beneficial.

How they respond to playmates can also be very important, as it develops social skills and healthy habits. This is also a skill that is great for when you are leaving your child somewhere with children they may not know. Getting comfortable around new individuals their age is a skillset that can tremor into adulthood. Playtime, while between the parents, the toddler, and possibly the siblings is important, can be just as important as with peers. Ways in which to help the transition and successfully execute the time is detailed for you clearly.

Getting into different routines is an important aspect to the child living in their home environment. Learning when playtime begins, occurs, and ends, such as taking out and putting away toys, is an important mindset. Other essential routines include bedtime, naptime, and proper hygiene. You and your toddler will both get into these habits to the point where they become second nature, which is the point!

Parenting Matters is a parenting app that invites parents/caregivers to interact with their young child through meaningful everyday activities. The building blocks to a child’s understanding of basic learning concepts are introduced from everyday activities inside and outside home.
