This summer, The Basics - Cobb County has been supporting parents and caregivers in early childhood development with tips, resources, and activities, including our Playground Paloozas!
We’re excited to share that within the last month, there's been a 10% increase in Basics Insights text messaging signups! Now, hundreds of parents and caregivers in Cobb County receive valuable tips directly to their phones, incorporating The Basics principles into daily routines. The impact of The Basics and Playground Palooza has been remarkable, with families engaging more in their children's learning and development, fostering stronger bonds and creating brighter futures. We invite our members to learn and share more about The Basics or consider co-hosting their own workshops to support even more families in their community!
