A Place of Our Own

Setting Up A Small Space (#6064)

[26 minutes]

This episode has not aired in the past few months on Iowa Public Television.

Series Description: A PLACE OF OUR OWN is the English-language companion to the Spanish-language series LOS NINOS EN SU CASA. Both series are designed for parents and anyone else who takes care of young children: grandparents, nannies, babysitters and home daycare providers. The series covers subjects such as tantrums, literacy, preventing obesity, and speech and language delays. These Peabody Award-winning series combine an entertainment format -- the daytime talk/demonstration show -- with solid educational information on how young children learn, and what adults need to know to help them be prepared for kindergarten and beyond.
