    Movement guru Rae Pica is known for her creative approaches to movement and learning with children from birth through elementary school and beyond. Research has proven that learning and movement are closely linked in childhood development. As a complement to her Moving & Learning series (and Redleaf's other movement activity resources materials), Ms. Pica has developed a companion piece for early childhood and school-age educators to share with families. It gives families background on the connection between movement and learning and provides ideas for fun ways to move together with their children. This booklet is a great way for programs and schools to partner with and educate families to support their children's physical, social-emotional, cognitive, and creative development through movement. Age focus: 2–10
