How we use Vroom to

have a healthy mind

in a healthy body

11

My nurse, Amy Rivera, introduced us to Vroom approximately a year ago. One of the benefits of using Vroom is that you can find fun ways to build your child’s brain in daily activities. We began by teaching our son things you find around the house and developing his motor skills.

Soon after we experienced the first results and we realized how many fun activities we were able to incorporate using the Daily Vroom app. We became very familiar with Vroom and my husband and I started a friendly competition on how many badges we could collect. We do activities like how to get the baby ready every day, how to teach our son to be more responsible by putting his toys away, etc.

Daily Vroom gives us the opportunity as a family to go outside and practice other fun activities. Another reason why we love using the Daily Vroom

is because it goes beyond doing daily activities; it also allows us to set reminders for new activities that help our son learn and pick activities that we all enjoy as a family.

Daily Vroom is very flexible and customizable; I can submit my own activities such as getting dress, naptime, snacking, etc. We both feel more connected with our baby. The time we spend one-on-one with our son is fun learning for him and an active part of the day for us.

Nurse-Family Partnership is pleased to partner with the Bezos Family Foundation to help children’s brain grow as strong as possible in the early years of life by introducing Vroom to Yvette, her husband and young son, as well as other families across the country. To learn more and discover fast, fun, and free tips to boost your child’s learning, go to joinvroom.org.
