MOTHER / INFANT SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
Educational Monthly Meeting – February 2008
The Educational Monthly Meeting in February was held by Amanda Slayer (coordinator of the local Library Puerta Abierta) and Kristen Jamsa, nurse practitioner and midwife who has been volunteering at the Hospitalito since September 2007.
Kristen explains; “As part of a discussion about infant and toddler growth and development, we talked about reading/enjoying stories with your baby”.
The mothers and children assisting to the meeting listened to the story La Oruga Hambrienta (The hungry Caterpillar) and afterwards the older children did an art project.
The meeting was a success as everybody was very engaged and seemed to enjoy it!!!
We want to thank Amanda and Kristen for coming and showing effective and fun ways to interact with children.
