During the first years of their life, your child is experiencing a lot for the first time. Next time you are at the park together, try this activity to help teach your child how to make connections.

Activity: Name That Sound (18 months - 2 years)

Use: At the Park

Description: When you're outside, pause and ask your child to "Name That Sound." Take turns guessing. Are you hearing children playing or a dog barking? The squeak of a swing or the chirp of a bird? Point out that some things, like ants, don't make sounds.

Brainy Background: When playing "Name That Sound," you're inviting your child to focus on the differences between sounds and figuring out what they are. This is an important skill for enjoying and learning language that will help them communicate with others.

Actividad: Nombra ese sonido (18 meses - 2 años)

Uso: En el parque

Descripción: Cuando están afuera, toma una pausa y pídele a tu niño que diga "Cuál es ese sonido". Túrnense para adivinar. ¿Escuchan niños jugando o un perro ladrando? ¿El chirrido de un columpio o el canto de un pájaro? Señala que algunas cosas, como las hormigas, no hacen sonidos.

Fondo Inteligente: Cuando juegan "nombra ese sonido", estás invitando a tu niño a concentrarse en escuchar las diferencias entre los sonidos y en adivinar qué son. Esta es una habilidad importante para disfrutar y aprender el idioma, lo cual ayudará a tu niño a comunicarse con otras personas.

What is RSV?

Respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, is a common respiratory virus. It can cause mild, cold-like symptoms but can be serious in babies, some young children, and older adults.

RSV may not be severe when it first starts. But it can become more severe a few days into the illness. Early symptoms of RSV may include:
- Runny nose
- Eating or drinking less
- Cough, which may progress to wheezing or difficulty breathing
