Rula you should prepare a note that describes how the online educational portal will be a parent "support" system. It will be developed as a parent friendly tool where by they can simply log on and ask questions....what should I do when my baby keeps crying? The portal will bring up both written materials and a video that explains why babies cry and how to handle the crying. It will also guide them on where they should go for more assistance. For example, my baby will start screaming and I cannot stop their crying. Answer: This type of crying typically means the child is in pain. Make sure that there is nothing physically hurting the child...something sticking him, a tooth coming out, stomach pains, a rash, etc. How to treat this? Who should you ask for help from? How not to panic?
It will also helps parents raise "smarter, stronger and kinder" children by encouraging them on how to do day to day activities that socialize children to establish friendships, learn about their community, caring for others...even at a very young age. So we could say that we would like them to partner with us and other agencies on developing this portal. We have lots of educational materials available to us from Sesame Street, Too Small to Fail and our own local work. The portal could be up and ready within 9 months. We would like them to support this through a contribution of 700,000 AED.
