Description
This live, in-person, two-hour Early Learning Oral Health Curriculum Training addresses the connection between children’s oral health and school success, with a focus on children from birth to two years of age, and the use of the Digital Brush Early Learning Curriculum and caregiver resources. The training for this digital curriculum focuses on showing teachers how to use the digital lessons to promote good oral health while encouraging parent involvement with the use of six at-home learning activities.
