stands for the National
Dissemination Center for Children with Disabilities. We
serve the nation as a central source of information on disabilities in
infants, toddlers, children, and youth, IDEA, which is the law
authorizing special education, No Child Left Behind (as it relates to
children with disabilities), and research-based information on
effective educational practices.

toys for children with disabilities, adapting toys to make them easier

Zero to
Three:
During the first three years of life, your child will develop crucial
intellectual, emotional and social abilities, learn to give and accept
love, to be confident and secure, to show empathy, to be curious and
persistent—all abilities that will enable your child to
learn, relate well to others and lead a happy and productive life. At Zero to Three, we're
here to help you navigate this critical period.
