Also make sure and stop by the booth.  We have a whole bunch of new stuff to show you.  Have safe travel and we will see you in Virginia Beach!

Birth to Three

November 4th, 2010 by 112751sd

We just got back from the EHS Birth to Three Institute and it was great! It was fantastic to see so many people there. The best part was they were all dedicated to helping children and families. We didn’t get to attend as many workshops as we would have like because we were busy promoting our website. But the Keynotes and workshops that we did attend were amazing.

We will have more new resources coming very soon. And don’t forget that if you are working with fathers or families to send us your information and well will help promote what you are doing!

Thank you.
