Age Paced Parenting Newsletter
The Age
Paced Parenting Newsletters, created
by CSREES and a multistate team, are used
by physicians, child care teachers, parent
resource libraries, home visitors, high
school teachers, and other parent educators
across the county.
Each newsletter provides information geared
to the specific age of a child. For example,
these “age-paced” newsletters
provide parents of a 6-month-old with important
suggestions about starting solid food and
parents of a 12-month-old with information
about learning to walk.
The information is accurate, reliable, and
research based—yet quick and easy to
read by busy parents “on the go.” Each
newsletter series contains information about
caring for and teaching very young children
and also offers information specific to its
state sponsor. Some series cover just parenting
of babies; others offer information for parents
of children up to 5 years of age. Parents
who read and use the newsletters have improved
their parenting skills and decreased the
incidence of spanking.
