What is infant mental health? |
|

children birth through age five.

National Institute of Child Health and Human
Development (NICHD) Free Materials Order Form |
|
|
Order form for free information about various issues related to early childhood. These can be copied without restriction. They are available in English and in some cases Spanish and can be helpful for countries outside of the United States as well.
They can either be downloaded and copied or an agency can send away for a copy and then add its logo and take it to a printer to make copies. Let me reinforce that there is NO RESTRICTION ON THEIR USE.
As you review the list of these materials that come from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, one of the institutes of the National Institute of Health, you should be able to determine usage of at least a few of these items. They can be provided to parents, child care directors, Head Start and Early Head Start directors, doctors' offices, utilized as handout materials at Health Fairs and Parenting Fairs. There are undoubtedly other uses as well that will be apparent as you review the list of resources.
