Love, Talk, Sing, Read, Play
As part of a new approach to communicating with parents the Families NSW partners in the Sydney metropolitan area have recently released some new resource for parents.
These booklets provide advice and information on the social and emotional development of their child, and how parents can help nuture this important part of child development.
To coincide with Aboriginal Childrens Day and Child Protection Week, Families NSW has launched radio messages the themes love and play for Aboriginal mums and dads.
