Connect for Kids, is an advocacy website for adults, both parents and providers. If you have not visited this site before or recently, check it out!
You can search archives by topic, content, or guides. The archives include many topics such as child safety, diversity, education, family income, health, history of childhood, kids and politics, media, parenting, taking action, and youth at risk. You can also read blogs, articles, field reports, etc.
You can even subscribe to a newsletter for recent news, research and policy developments from the child development field. Finally, you can search for state specific information.
One place on this website that I find particularily useful is the Child Care for Very Young Resource (Guides: Action Central) There are many more links and articles by specialists directly related to early childhood.
As mentioned before, I recommend this site for both parents and providers. The information is valid and constantly updated. New parents and well as veteran providers will find this website useful and easy to navigate around.
Happy Reading!

About Me
- Dawn Braa, DCTC Child Development Instructor
- Hello! Thank you for visiting my blog. I'll be reviewing website resources for early childhood providers, parents, and even children so that you don't have to! I earned my Bachelor’s Degree from Minnesota State University, Mankato with a degree in Family Consumer Science: Family Life Child Development, and a double minor in Parent Education and Early Childhood Education. I received a Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Education from The University of Phoenix. I have worked in Infant, Toddler, and Intermediate rooms in various childcare centers, along with being a Lead Preschool Teacher, both in a center and public school system. I enjoy teaching early childhood sign language and am especially interested in curriculum planning for preschoolers. I taught at SCC in Faribault and Mankato before coming to DCTC. I began teaching at DCTC in August, 2004. My husband and I enjoy spending time with our young son. We spend our time together biking, swimming, rollerblading, and walking our dog. You can contact me by email at: dawn.braa@dctc.edu
