What is claimed is:
This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 to provisional application Ser. No. 61/856,133 filed Jul. 19, 2013, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The present invention relates to teaching about infant care. More particularly, though not exclusively, the present invention relates to a process, system, and application which allows for students to perform child care related tasks and for those tasks to be monitored, evaluated, and used for educating the student through an interactive application.
Schools have long sought effective methods of teaching students about childcare. The previous educational methods would involve demonstrations of typical parenting tasks, including changing diapers, feeding, rocking, reading stories, and playing with the baby, often involving dolls. Students also have previously participated in simulated care, where, for example, a student may be asked to care for an egg for a certain duration. Nearly all of these prior teaching techniques rely on the student to self report. Any feedback was either based on the student's self reported activity or on observation, but was not based on independently recorded data. Thus, there is a need in the art for a process, system, and application that enables educators to instruct and evaluate students based on independently recorded data.
Some systems use dolls to provide a more realistic experience. However, providing dolls for every student in a large class can get expensive. Moreover, the dolls can be damaged or soiled with repeated use. There is thus a need for a process, system and application which enables for realistic training without the additional costs of dolls.
It is desirable to provide a process, system and application for teaching child care which addresses the problems in the art.

“DID YOU KNOW” Facts—That appear randomly and during various actions performed while application is in use.
Wash your hands often with soap and water especially after changing a child's diapers, feeding, wiping their nose or mouth, and touching their toys, pacifier, or other objects.
Breastfeeding protects an infant from a wide array of infectious and noninfectious diseases.
Always place your baby on his or her back to sleep, even for naps. This is the safest sleep position for a healthy baby to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
Alcohol consumed during pregnancy can lead to Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). There is no safe amount of alcohol a woman can drink while pregnant.
In the first year, babies learn to focus their vision, reach out, explore, and learn about the things that are around them.
Cognitive, or brain development means the learning process of memory, language, thin king, and reasoning.
Children need a balance of nutrients from food for healthy brain growth and development.
Do not shake your baby-ever! Babies have very weak neck muscles that are not yet able to support their heads. If you shake your baby, you can damage his or her brain or even cause death.
Talk to your baby. He or she will find your voice calming.
Sing to your baby and play music. This will help your baby develop a love for music and will help his brain development.
The way parents cuddle, hold, and play with their baby will set the basis for how they will interact with them and others.
Play with your baby when he or she's alert and relaxed. Watch your baby closely for signs of being tired or fussy so that she can take a break from playing.
Never carry hot liquids or foods near your baby or while holding him.
Take care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. Parenting can be hard work! It is easier to enjoy your new baby and be a positive, loving parent when you are feeling good yourself.
Under-nourished newborns grow more slowly and have less energy to learn and explore.
Answer when your baby makes sounds by repeating the sounds and adding words. This will help him learn to use language.
Newborns should not be given foods such as nuts, popcorn and raisins because they may cause choking.
Newborns grow and develop faster in the first year than any other year.
During the first six months of life, babies gradually gain information about the world around them.
At birth, a newborn brain weighs ⅔ to ¾ pounds (300-350 grams) and contains 100 billion neurons. The neurons controlling hearing and vision rapidly become myelinated.
When infants grow up in a regular, predictable world, they learn that they can trust their caregivers to meet their needs.
Teen pregnancy and childbearing can carry high health, emotional, social, and financial costs for both teen mothers and their children. Teen mothers want to do their best for their own health and that of their child, but some can become overwhelmed by life as a parent.
Although teen birth rates have been falling for the last two decades, more than 365,000 teens, ages 15-19, gave birth in 2010.
The ingredients in breast milk support healthy brain development in newborns. The fatty acids DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and ARA (arachidonic acid) in breast milk promote rapid formation of myelin, the protective coating on the axons of neurons.
A baby nursing at the breast can focus on her mother's face, allowing eye contact and visual communication between the two.
Sleep is important to brain development. On average newborn babies sleep up to 16 hours per day, but only for a few hours at a time.
The American Academy of Pediatrics website has a wide variety of additional information on good health during infancy and childhood. www.aap.org/
Prolonged stress in newborns can slow brain development and physical growth.
Prolonged stress in newborns can negatively affect the immune system.
Prolonged stress in newborns can cause long-term damage to the developing brain.
Consistent, loving support from caring adults can counteract much of the damage caused by stress in early childhood.
The most important experience for a newborn is you. Newborns love the time they spend with adults, and learn best through face-to-face interaction with other people.
Newborns and their parents begin the process of bonding shortly after birth.
Over time, newborns form specific attachment relationships with their parents.
Attachments formed early establish patterns for the way the newborn connects with people later in life.
Newborns form attachment relationships with many different people. Each attachment is different, and is specific to that individual. A newborns attachment to other adults will not replace his or her attachment to their parents.
Newborns do not necessarily need expensive toys. Enjoyment can come from everyday items around the house. Often a box can be more fun than an expensive toy.
The setting screen will have the details, such as Infant's name, gender and skin color etc. The rate/timeframe at which the health of an infant will decrease will be set on the scale of slow to fast ranges or at a random rate which can be set by users through application settings.
This popup screen will have the application/company information.
