10 THINGS EVERY CHILD NEEDS

I just took an Infant Development class and on our last day our professor talked about Robert R. McCormick Foundation's  List of the top ten things every child needs. I love it and think it is so true. I hope every parent out there makes all of these things a priority in their child's life.

Every child needs...

10.  To Read

9.     To Hear/Experience Music

8.     To Play

7.    Someone to Talk With (communication)  

6.    Quality Care/Nurturing (education)

5.    Positive Self-Esteem

4.    A Safe/Healthy Environment

3.    A Stable Relationship

2.    Appropriate/Nurturing Touch

1.    Human Interaction

I also love this message. 

Be crazy about your child.
