2025 edition: What’s new?
Updated Baby section
The 2025 edition provides an update to part of the chapter Your child’s development. Everything related to a child’s temperament, the parent-child relationship, and structure has been reviewed in light of current scientific knowledge. Information on play, reading, and screen time has also been updated.
The importance of the environment
This year, the environment is in the spotlight. Not only are the pages of the From Tiny Tot to Toddler guide printed on paper made from recycled materials and sourced from well-managed forests, but additions have also been made to reflect parents’ environmental concerns. For example, a section on public transit has been included and references have been added throughout concerning choices (e.g., food, consumption) that support environmental protection. Lastly, a section dedicated entirely to the environment has been included: Being environmentally aware mentions a few things parents can do to help protect the environment.
