Ages & Stages! Using American Academy of Pediatrics take on Ages and Stages as a guide, we discuss the importance of early intervention, milestones, and the challenges faced with significant gaps coming out of the pandemic and living in an age of social media. Playdates, board games, cooking, and general non-virtual moments all matter. Reading to our kids at an early age is so important. The CDC's milestone tracker is a game changer.
