Hey Utah! Not cool to shame my little girls for trick-or-treating on Sunday. A big THANK YOU to those who were kind. At the end of the day, we’re using this as a teaching moment in our home. ☺️

@SenMikeLee @SenatorRomney @rootforkids in St. George would love your support on this for our Early Head Start program!
From early math skills to confidence and resilience, #HeadStart helps children from at-risk communities build the abilities they need to succeed. Congress, please #UniteforHeadStart & prioritize funding! Only 31% of eligible kids benefit from #HeadStart’s comprehensive services.

#Braindevelopment starts for your #baby on day one. The quality time you spend playing, reading and talking with your #child in their first few years of life helps shape their brain and sets them up for success in school later on.

Your child will begin babbling early on. Make sure you RESPOND to their communication using full sentences and complete words. Help develop their language and literacy skills from early in their life to set them up for success. #SmartTalkAZ from @ReadOnArizona

President Trump's Budget Proposal did not include a funding increase for #HeadStart, despite the fact that it's required to meet new needs of families, pay staff higher and adapt to changing communities. Join us in asking Congress to support more funding: bit.ly/2HV9Ws4

Dr. Zigler felt that if any society was going to survive, it needed to invest in its children. We are thankful for his dedication to that belief and his support of every child's ability to succeed.
