What's New: HELP 3-6 (2nd Edition) is the long-awaited update to our best-selling and formerly entitled "HELP for Preschoolers" family of curriculum-based materials. The 2nd Edition includes three new Strands (Self Regulation, Dramatic Play, Time), along with 12 new behaviors/skills, and improved age-ranges, wording, and definitions on over 100 of the behaviors/skills, the removal of some items to better align with HELP 0-3, and updating of many of the assessment procedures, adaptations, and instructional activities. For continuity between editions, the behavior/skill ID numbers remain unchanged from "HELP for Preschoolers."

HELP is an extremely popular, widely-used, family-centered, curriculum-based assessment for use by professionals working with infants, toddlers, young children, and their families: As a curriculum-based assessment, HELP is not standardized; it is used for identifying needs, tracking growth and development, and determining "next steps" (target objectives). It offers play-based activities and intervention strategies for each behavior/skill.
HELP is comprehensive and developmentally sequenced -- covers 685 skills (birth-3 years) and 622 skills (3-6 years) in the six domains: Cognitive, Language, Gross Motor, Fine Motor, Social, and Self-Help.
HELP promotes a cross-disciplinary, integrated approach - used by physical, speech, and occupational therapists, early childhood educators, infant specialists, psychologists, social workers, and nurses.
HELP focuses on the whole child -- the importance of supportive environments and interactions, building on strengths and providing activities for working on specific needs.
Each skill has a unique ID number for easy cross-reference across all the HELP products.
