Support healthy development with today’s most trusted screeners

More of today’s early childhood professionals choose ASQ® over any other developmental and social-emotional screener. Talk to ASQ users, and they’ll tell you why. With ASQ, you can:

• SCREEN WITH CONFIDENCE. Accurate, reliable, and valid, ASQ is the most trusted and widely used tool for checking a child’s development. ASQ results help you celebrate a child’s skills and strengths, monitor development, and identify and address any possible delays.

• ENGAGE FAMILIES. Families are the key to a child’s early development and learning—and as a parent-completed tool, ASQ encourages open conversations with parents and caregivers about their child’s development. ASQ involves parents in the screening process and helps them boost their child’s development with fun learning activities. And ASQ’s many translations help you work effectively with diverse families.

• TEACH AND LEARN ABOUT CHILD DEVELOPMENT. ASQ teaches parents key facts about child development and important milestones (and gives you a refresher, too!). Parents will learn more about how their child is developing and what they can do to encourage their progress and well-being.

• COMMUNICATE WITH PARTNERS. Effective with many different populations, ASQ helps you communicate successfully and work across systems with your colleagues who help children, including pediatricians, home visitors, teachers, and child care professionals.

• JOIN A COMMUNITY OF USERS. When you choose ASQ, you’re joining the family: a vast community of users dedicated to improving outcomes for children and families. You can connect with a whole network of users—from statewide implementations, community-based programs, and individual centers—and share insights on launching a successful screening initiative.

Fast Facts about ASQ:SE-2

BESTSELLER

Valid and reliable social-emotional screeningA strong social-emotional foundation is the key to a child’s health, well-being, and ability to learn in school. But for many children, so-cial-emotional challenges may go unrecognized before they start kin-dergarten. With ASQ:SE-2, a highly reliable, parent-completed tool with a deep, exclusive focus on social and emotional development, it’s never been easier to check children’s skills, pinpoint potential behaviors of concern, and identify any need for further assessment. Screen with ASQ:SE-2 at regular intervals to celebrate children’s developing skills and catch social-emotional issues early, so children can receive the interventions they need in their formative first years.

Helping Your Baby Grow, 0–3 months (continued) ACTIVITIES

Take your baby out for short walks. Let your baby see the sky and trees, listen to the birds, and feel the wind. If you can carry your baby, they can feel the warmth of your body and hear your heartbeat, and they will feel safe and secure. Your baby may cry less and calm more easily when they are physically close to you. Talk to your baby about what you can see, hear, or feel. This is how your baby learns the meaning of words.

Gentle movement is usually calming for babies. Dancing or rocking in a chair is relaxing for both you and your baby. Listen to soft, soothing music, or sing quietly. Gently sway back and forth, holding your baby close. Whisper in your baby’s ear and let them know how much you love them.

Help older siblings get to know the new baby by making time for them to be together. Show big sister (or brother) how to be gentle with the baby. Tell big sister what a good job she is doing. “Wow, she really likes your smile. Look at how she’s watching!” Encourage siblings to talk to the baby. Have an older brother come close and say, “Hi, I’m James. Can you see me?” Gently position your baby’s body so everyone can look at each other.

Your baby recognizes your voice. Hearing familiar voices is comforting to your baby. Talk to your baby about everything. For example, while grocery shopping, talk about what you are buying. “Bananas. Let’s get some bananas.” Your baby also loves to hear your singing voice. You may remember some simple songs or lullabies from your childhood.

Find a quiet, comfortable place to feed your baby. Hold your baby close and look into their eyes. While feeding, watch your baby closely and see what helps them calm and focus. Does your baby relax and suck better when you talk or sing to them or when you are quiet? See what works best for your baby. Pay attention to how you are feeling, too. Your baby is connected to you and can sense how you feel. When you relax, your baby relaxes.

Watch your baby carefully and guess how they are feeling. Is your baby hungry? Full? Uncomfortable? Is your baby happy, mad, or sad? Is your baby ready to play or getting sleepy? Talk to your baby about what you think your baby is feeling. “I saw that yawn. You look sleepy.” One day soon your baby will be able to tell you! For now, your baby tells you with behaviors, body movements, cries, sounds, and facial expressions.

ACTIVITIES

(continued)

Your baby can see your face, smell you, feel your skin, and hear your voice. Your baby can even sense how you are feeling. Talk, sing, look at, and smile at your baby. Say your baby’s name. Watch and wait to see what your baby does. Does your baby look at your face and eyes? Is your baby listening to you? When you move, does your baby try to follow your voice with head movements? Your baby doesn’t like to be far from you.

At 2 weeks, your baby can see clearly 8 to 10 inches away. Hold your baby close to your face and watch what they do. If your baby opens their mouth, open your mouth. Stick out your tongue. Watch and wait a bit. Does your baby try to copy you? Your baby may not be able to copy you at first, but keep trying!

Place your baby on their tummy on a clean blanket on the floor. Lie down next to your baby, talk, and watch what your baby does. When your baby starts to pick up their head, let them know you noticed. “You picked up your head!” Celebrating new skills with your baby as they grow builds confidence. Now your baby can look at the world in a whole new way. Never leave your baby alone on their tummy.

Your baby is never too young to listen to a story or look at pictures in a book. Your baby will feel warm, safe, and calm in your arms. Reading books is an activity you and your baby can do every day as a routine, to help you get close and connect. Your baby listens to the tone of your voice and hears the words you are saying. At this age, your baby focuses best on simple black-and-white pictures or big, brightly colored pictures.

Talk Time

Tummy Playtime

Storytime

From birth, babies are interested in exploring your face, voice, and body. Your baby tells you a lot through body movements and sounds. Watch and listen to your baby during playtime and other daily activities. Who is this little person? Respond to sounds your baby makes, and let your baby know you are trying to understand. Through back-and-forth interactions with your baby, you become connected, or attached, to each other. Encourage family members to show love for the new baby (and each other). Your positive back and forth interactions with your baby are key to their social-emotional development.

“Keep on Trying”

Your toddler is taking on more challenges, and these challenges can trigger big feelings. It doesn’t take much for your child to become discouraged and give up on a task that is hard or to say, “You do it.” Encourage and support your child: “Keep on trying. You can do it.” Stay close and, if needed, help your child before they do give up. Let your toddler know you have confidence in their abilities. When your child learns something new, let them know how proud you are.

First FriendsMake times when your child can be with other children their age. Your child may enjoy attending music, movement, or dance classes with other children. If that is not possible, consider trips to the park or dancing together during play dates. Such activities are low-stress for your child, since there is little need to share toys or other belongings.

Calm First, Talk LaterYour child is learning to express and control their big feelings. This is a very hard thing to do! If your child is upset, help them calm down before trying to talk to them. Hold them lovingly in your arms and breathe together. “You’re okay sweetie. Mommy’s here.” Talk about and practice calming ideas at times when your child is not upset. Ideas include deep breathing, using words to talk about feelings, taking a break, or switching to a new activity.

Exploring the WorldGive your toddler opportunities to explore new activities and places. Take your child to a park, the library, or other fun places. New places may be scary for your child at first. Keep your child close and let them watch before joining in activities. Show your child how to greet new people, such as a clerk at a store. It is okay if your child is shy at first. When your child is ready, they will let you know.

Your child is learning what they can do and are more confident in their abilities. They are proud of their big kid skills. Your child also wants control. They want to do things their way and on their timeline. It can be frustrating when your child tells you “no” or wants to do things “by myself.” The trick is to give your child a little control while still being in control yourself. For example, always offer two acceptable choices when requesting something of your child: “Do you want to put on your red shirt or your blue shirt?” This small choice provides a little bit of control that feels good to your independent toddler.

TIP SHEET

Getting Ready for KindergartenEntering kindergarten is a big change for you and your child. It is an exciting time, and it also might be a little scary for you both. You can help by preparing yourself and your child for this big step well ahead of time. Provide opportunities for your child to practice being away from you and being more independent with self-help skills such as eating and dressing. Visit the school and find out what to expect. These steps will increase your child’s confidence and make both of you feel more prepared for this big change!

In The Year Before Kindergarten

• Set up times for your child to play with other children—including future classmates, if possible. Knowing how to play and get along with peers is a big part of kindergarten. Having a few friends in class will help your child feel more comfortable.

• Teach your child how to do things independently. This will help your child start to build autonomy—the ability to do things separately from you.

• Let your child dress without your help. Teach your child how to open food containers. Teach them all the steps of using the bathroom alone. Your child’s self-confidence will grow as they learn how to do things independently. Be sure to praise your child’s growing independence: “You dressed all by yourself this morning!”

• Encourage your child to practice writing their first name. Teach them their address and telephone number.

• Limit television and other screen time to 1 to 2 hours a day. Your child will need to be able to stay calm and focus on real-world activities or a teacher for periods of time.

• Encourage your child to stick with activities for longer periods of time. This helps your child build self-regulation skills—the ability to monitor and control their own behavior.

• Take your child with you out into the world—to the library, grocery store, and other places. This will help your child feel more secure exploring new places.

• Create bedtime and wake-up routines over the summer before kindergarten starts. Help your child prepare for the school schedule.

• Visit your local school and your child’s classroom. Meet the teacher. Find the bathroom! This will help build your child’s confidence.

When ASQ:SE-2 results say a child needs more, follow up with SEAM™

Social-Emotional Assessment / Evaluation Measure (SEAM™)Research Edition

By Jane Squires, Ph.D., Diane Bricker, Ph.D., Misti Waddell, M.S., Kristin Funk, M.A., LCSW, Jantina Clifford, Ph.D., & Robert Hoselton

When results from a screener like ASQ:SE-2 say a child needs more support, your next step is SEAM™, a discovery and planning tool for helping young children at risk for social-emotional challenges. For use with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, the SEAM assessment reveals detailed qualitative information on children’s social-emotional competence—and identifies caregivers’ strengths and areas of need.

CONDUCTING SEAM™ WITH FAMILIES HELPS YOU:• Work on family outcomes as well as child outcomes• Start sensitive but important talks with parents• Educate families about social-emotional milestones• Develop functional goals for the child

SEAM IS A TWO-PART ASSESSMENT:SEAM Tool. SEAM includes three intervals with different developmental rang-es: Infant (2–18 months), Toddler (18–36 months), and Preschool (36–66 months). Each interval assesses 10 child benchmarks critical to social-emotion-al competence, including empathy, adaptive skills, self-image, emotional re-sponses, and healthy interactions with others. The SEAM system also includes SEAM with Ages, an alternate version of the tool annotated with a helpful list of age ranges for each item. This version makes it easy to give caregivers general guidance on how social-emotional skills typically develop and where their child’s development fits on the continuum.

SEAM Family Profile. The Family Profile assesses parent/caregiver strengths and helps identify areas in which they need more supports to foster their child’s social-emotional skills. Like SEAM, the Family Profile assessment includes three intervals—Infant, Toddler, and Preschool. Each interval measures four bench-marks: responding to needs, providing activities and play, providing predictable routines and an appropriate environment, and ensuring home safety.

WHAT TO ORDERComplete SEAM™, Research Edition—$52.00 | Stock #: 18206W-72803 2014 | 46-page User’s Guide (8 ½ x 11, paperback), plus 179 pages of master forms on CD-ROM | ISBN 978-1-59857-280-3
