The Nurturing Cards describe in simple, concrete terms the powerful impact parents have on their babies in their everyday care taking. Caregivers can use the cards as a complete set or one at a time to help parents gain an understanding of the many ways they can act daily to build an emotionally strong relationship with their baby.
The Nurturing Cards address topics under the headings: Remembering, Holding, Learning, Playing, Teaching, Talking, and Listening.
The Nurturing Cards are written for parents of babies from newborn to about age 18 months. Seven separate cards are beautifully packaged in glassine envelopes and sized for easy 5 x 7 framing. Drawings by children’s book illustrator Sharon McGinley-Nally are enhanced by a rainbow of pastel colors. Easy-to-read text is appropriate for all reading levels.
