Do the math: If a mother averages six diaper changes a day, she''ll change 2,190 diapers during her baby''s first year. Things improve slightly over the next twelve months. Based on five changes a day, she''ll add another 1,825 diaper changes to her score. By the time her child is half- way to her third birthday, Mom will pass the 5,000 mark. That''s a lot of dirty diapers! If this mom is you, it''s no wonder you might be thinking seriously about potty training.While successful potty training in itself isn''t considered a developmental milestone in a child''s life, it is nonetheless an important transition for both you and your child. The good news is that potty training doesn''t have to be complicated and neither does a book that explains it. Busy moms need a resource that gives them comprehensive information without a lot of unnecessary details and presents them with options instead of a one-size-fits-all program. Potty Training 1-2-3 provides all of that and more. The more is in the results.

Who can understand the mind of a preschooler? You can! Know that above all else, a preschooler is a learner.

Em ''Além do nana nenê'', Gary Ezzo e Robert Buckman abordam a educação infantil a partir dos cinco meses até os dois anos de idade, período em que a estrutura moral e espiritual da criança está em processo de formação. Os autores mostram que nesse momento são lançados fundamentos importantes, e cada aspecto da vida do menino ou da menina faz diferença a hora certa de comer, a postura adequada no cadeirão, o tempo ideal no cercadinho, os limites a respeito do que pode ou não tocar, o uso da chupeta e assim por diante.
