Event Alert: Baby Blast 3

Sharing with you an event for the whole family.

Following the very successful launch of “Baby Blast: Fun Learning Starts Now” in 2010, and the well received "Baby Blast: Fun Learning Continues" in 2011, we again encourage you to join us in celebrating the wonder of life at its early stages! Recognizing that Early Head Start (EHS) is crucial in the social, intellectual and physical development of children age 0-3 years, EHS advocates, teachers, experts and parents together with their kids, will once again gather on April 22, 2012, from 10am-7pm at Trinoma Activity Center for “Baby Blast Year 3: It's More Fun in The Family,” a one day event highlighting the importance of early childhood education.

EHS has been in existence in the US since 1995, and in the Philippines, it has already gained a following from parents that appreciate and see how it benefits their children. Several institutions already offer programs that promote enjoyable, unforced learning, as well as hands-on play and parent-child bonding. Even the government has taken notice. “We ought to ensure continuity in making efforts to provide holistic development for children in their most important period where they gain the foundation of future learning. Behavioral science said that there is nothing more critical in a child's life than this early formation," a statement issued by Sen. Edgardo Angara, who chairs the Senate Committee on Education, Arts and Culture.

To continue to bring this advocacy to more parents and educators, and to enlighten existing EHS supporters with the latest developments and methods in early education, “Baby Blast Year 3: It's More Fun in the Family” will highlight entertaining talks on health, parenting and education from experts, parents and teachers, educational material demos, parent and baby exhibits, as well as booths and fun activities! This year’s activities will give emphasis on the role of each member of the family in the development of babies. There will be EHS demonstrations, an Imagination Corner highlighting books, toys and interactive technologies, as well as a wellness and fitness area for baby and the whole family!
