What's the best learning toy for a toddler? Things you already have at home. Try one of these 5 everyday play ideas the next time your looking for something fill the time.

1. Sensory bins with dry rice
2. Stacking cups
3. Narrated walks outside
4. Sorting by color with socks
5. Water play in the sink

These no cost activities have incredibly high developmental value. Play is the purest form of learning!

Save this for a rainy day... or today!

More good days together. There will always be something more that can be done. There will always be something that you wish you didn't do. But getting held up on that will rob you of the good day that is waiting right in front of you.

At FCC we offer counseling to help talk through and process all of the obstacles that may be robbing you of more good days.

What does a "good day" look like for you right now?

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the inspirational women who show up selflessly everyday, fulfilling their motherly roles. You are the backbone to the world. We see you and we are amazed at all you’ve done to pour into your family. Today is about pouring back into you!

Today commemorates the Battle of Puebla in 1862, when a small Mexican army unexpectedly defeated the French army. This victory lead the way to Mexico’s independence. We love and support all the members of our Mexican community! Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Talking to your baby as if they already understand you... helps them actually understand you!

You can address them directly when making decisions on what's for dinner, or tell them able the plans for the day in great detail.

Of course they're not going to hang onto your every word. But they'll be exposed to many more words and phrases than they would if they heard them passively. And one day soon, you'll be surprised at how they'll jump in and respond to you.
