Did you know Utah is home to eight federally recognized tribes? On Indigenous Peoples' Day, we're taking a moment to honor the Indigenous communities of our state and to celebrate their rich cultures, languages, and traditions.

Here at Kids Who Count, we work alongside families every day, and we know that children thrive when they feel rooted in their family, their culture, and their community. We're grateful to learn from Indigenous voices and to support every child's unique story.

Fire Prevention Week is Oct 4-10, and the best time to talk fire safety with your family is before you ever need it. 🔥🚒

Here are 5 simple things you can do this week:

✅ Test your smoke alarms. You need one on every level and inside and outside every sleeping area.
✅ Make a home escape plan with two ways out of every room.
✅ Pick a family meeting spot outside, like the mailbox or a tree.
✅ Practice your plan, even with the littlest ones. Make it a game and do it again in a few months.
✅ Keep matches, lighters, and candles up high and out of reach.

Little ones learn through repetition and routine, so practicing now helps safe habits stick. 💛

Fall is the perfect season for flower soup! 🍂🌼

Grab a bucket or bowl, some water, and a spoon, then head outside to gather what the season has left behind: fallen petals, colorful leaves, little twigs, and the last of the garden blooms. Let your little one scoop, pour, stir, and "cook" their very own potion.

What looks like play is doing big work:
✨ Pinching, scooping, and stirring build fine motor strength
✨ Different textures, temperatures, and smells engage the senses
✨ Words like "pour," "mix," "wet," "soft," and "more" build language
✨ Pretend play grows imagination and problem-solving

Tip: This soup is for stirring, not tasting! Stay close and check that everything you gather is safe to touch.

Tag us if you try it!

October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month, and it's a perfect time to talk about something we see every day at Kids Who Count: how much of a difference early intervention makes.

Every child develops at their own pace, and for children with Down syndrome, early intervention services — like speech therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy — can help build skills during the years when the brain is most ready to learn. The earlier we start, the more tools a child has to communicate, move, and connect with the world around them.

If you're a parent navigating a new diagnosis, please know: you are not alone, and support is closer than you think.
