Today's feature report looks at three different models of pre-school and talks with advocates of each: Gail O'Gorman of Taddle Creek Montessori school, Lorrie Huggins manager of the YMCA Family Development Centre's "Play to Learn" preschool, and Georgia Bowen director of the East Toronto Creative Preschool. Experts Martha Friendly, from the Childcare resource and Research Unit at the Centre for Urban and Community Studies, University of Toronto and Ann Douglas, author of 15 books including 'The Mother of All Baby Books" talk about what to look for in a preschool. Then we talk to a couple of families about their own searches for an appropriate preschool. Our Reality Check looks at the thorny issue of fitting the birth of a baby into the busy calendar of sporting events. Steve Pratt and his wife Lisa are trying to plan a baby but Steve doesn't want to miss any major sporting events. He visits with professional athletes and ardent fans for some perspective. Knowing how to prevent choking and what to do if your infant or child starts choking is the focus of the How-to segment. Peter Alexandrou of first aid and safety services at the Red Cross talks about this important issue. When Elizabeth McKenzie was 7 months pregnant, her water broke and she delivered baby Emma. Emma is now 15 months old and starting to move into the wider world. Though her mum and dad have trepidations about her health and exposing her to germs. We gave the McKenzie family a video camera for this story of Emma's coming out. Written by Joe Woodward See less
