FROM THE AUTHOR
26 year Pediatrician and father of four - Dr. Robert Bucknam, M.D. says:
"Change! It seems to be a way of life for parents. In our rapidly expanding, knowledge based society where technology changes everyday, new innovations impact life styles and the way people learn. Parenting curriculums, once designed to cover large blocks of developmental time are less effective today than years gone by. Precision teaching with concise thoughts for specific age ranges seems to be the way of educational life. Our newest curriculum reflects these changes. The communication and dissemination of early childhood principles are easily and naturally divided into four developmental stages, starting at birth and going to thirty-six months. Each stage represents new growth transitions requiring parents to accommodate the changes taking place as their child's grows. Our early childhood curriculum now include:
Stage One: Birth to 5 months-- On Becoming Babywise
Stage Two: 5 to 12 months -- On Becoming Babywise 11
Stage Three: 12 - 18 months -- On Becoming Pretoddlerwise
Stage Four: 18 - 36 months -- On Becoming Toddlerwise
Stage Five: 36 - 84 months -- On Becoming Childwise
We continue this series where Babywise 11 left off. During the next 180 days, the newly emerging walking, talking, exploring, child begins a developmental metamorphosis from babyhood to toddlerhood."
