PlayReadVIP

Website
The PlayReadVIP is an evidence-based parent education program for parents of infants and young children that takes place at pediatric offices at the time of children’s routine pediatric check-ups. At each PlayReadVIP session, parents meet one-on-one with a PlayReadVIP Coach for 25-30 minutes. Through the use of videotaping and developmentally-appropriate toys, books, and resources, PlayReadVIP helps provide parents with tools for using pretend play, shared reading, and daily routines as opportunities for strengthening early development and literacy in their children. PlayReadVIP has been developed and led by pediatricians and researchers at NYU Grossman School of Medicine.

We offer books and fun activities for young children and their families.
