0 to 6 years – Making a Difference
The first six years are the most important years in your child’s life. In the early years, the brain
forms connections that set the stage for lifelong learning, behavior and health. By age six,
children have a solid foundation for reaching their full potential in the years ahead.

Triple P: Hurting Others – Charlton P.S.
Toddlers sometimes hurt others without thinking. They may bite, scratch,
pull hair, push or hit. Bitting seems to cause parents the most concern.
Apart from hurting, a bite that breaks the skin can become infected. If not
dealt with, this kind of behavior can get worse. This tip sheet discussion
gives some suggestions to help teach your toddler to be gentle with
others.
