Young children grow and learn when they participate fully in everyday routines and activities. Assess this critical dimension of child development with the MEISR (TM), an easy-to-use tool for creating a snapshot of the functional behaviors of children from birth to 3 years of age.
A rich learning opportunity for both families and professionals-and an ideal starting point for talking to parents about their child's functioning-the MEISR helps build an understanding of a child's engagement, independence, and social relationships within the context of common family routines. Completed by caregivers and easy to use with them during home visits, the MEISR helps paint a picture of the child's functional abilities and highlights future learning opportunities.
