    Isabelle Hau asks "What if love—not flashcards—built the smartest brains?"
    2025/08/13
    What if love—not flashcards—built the smartest brains? Stanford’s Dr. Isabelle Howe is here with fresh insights on “relational intelligence,” why babies laugh eight times harder with a friend, and how junk tech is quietly choking your family dinners. We dig into France’s universal preschool, Head Start’s looming funding cliff, and the Sunday-night ritual that turns bedtime dread into disco therapy. Expect science, real-world inspiration, and hopeful ideas you’ll want to quote at your next parent-teacher night.

  • We All May Look Different, We All Still Belong: Families Embracing Anti-Bias Values

    We All May Look Different, We All Still Belong: Families Embracing Anti-Bias Values
    2024/12/18
    In this episode of The Early Link Podcast, host Rafael Otto chats with producer John Nimmo and parents Gabriel and Casey—contributors to the new film Families Embracing Anti-Bias Values. Together, they explore what it means to raise children who recognize, celebrate, and take pride in differences. They discuss the anxiety and hope of parenting in uncertain times, the power of acknowledging mixed-race identities within a family, and how everyday moments—from a “raise your hand” game at home to honest community dialogue—shape kids into empathetic, confident advocates for equity. This episode offers a warm, unvarnished look at how families are pushing back against fear and creating more inclusive, compassionate worlds alongside their children.

  • Dr. Stephanie Curenton Discusses Preschool for All Evaluation with a Racial Equity Framework

    Dr. Stephanie Curenton Discusses Preschool for All Evaluation with a Racial Equity Framework
    2024/11/14
    This episode of The Early Link Podcast features Dr. Stephanie Curenton, a professor at Boston University’s Wheelock College of Education and Human Development and the lead evaluator for Multnomah County’s Preschool for All program. Dr. Curenton brings her personal and professional expertise in early childhood development, emphasizing her passion for creating high-quality early learning experiences, influenced by her own time as a Head Start student. Dr. Curenton outlines the objectives of the Preschool for All program, which is now in its third year, with a racial equity framework built into its design. The program, offering more than 2,000 preschool slots for the 2024-2025 school year, aims to create equitable access to early learning opportunities for families throughout Multnomah County. She highlights the intentional efforts to reach children from diverse racial, ethnic, linguistic, and socioeconomic backgrounds, emphasizing that equity must extend beyond race to include ability, gender identity, and financial considerations. "What this mother said is nothing about us without us, and that was really this value of making sure that we center the voices of the children and families who are actually enrolled in this program and that they have a stake in this, and that they have access to all of this information to help learn and grow. I think for me, the responsibility as researchers that is placed upon us to make sure that we are sharing information and that we're telling the stories of the community in a way that is respectful, a way that is really honoring who they are and the values that they place around this, and what the community has invested."
