Born Learning – A National Learning Campaign
Born Learning is a new national public engagement campaign, focused on creating early learning opportunities for young children. Public service advertising, a Web site, and educational material gives parents and informal caregivers easy, “doable” action steps to help young children learn.
The fact is, it’s the simple things that make a difference in building a young child’s foundation for future success. It’s not flashcards or expensive educational toys – it’s making your grocery trip into a treasure hunt for colors or shapes, or turning your laundry sorting into a silly song about body parts. On your next walk, narrating your child’s actions as if you were a sports announcer. Even dinner can become a learning opportunity, as your toddler builds math skills by counting eggs.
The Born Learning campaign shows how to turn everyday activities into opportunities to encourage learning. It’s built on the idea that while children are born learning, parents, grandparents, and caregivers can encourage that learning in everyday moments.
Born Learning is brought to Robeson County by the Robeson County Partnership for Children and the United Way of Robeson County. For more information on the Born Learning campaign, please contact Tanya Underwood at 910-738-6767 ext. 233 or visit the Born Learning website at www.bornlearning.org.
