Holistic Pediatric Association Joins BAM Radio Network

Affiliation to promote development of the whole child.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) April 25, 2008 -- Today, the BAM Radio Network (BRN), a joint project of Moving & Learning and Jackstreet Media, announced an agreement with the Holistic Pediatric Association (HPA) to bring BRN programming to it community. The new resource will feature BRN's premier program, Body, Mind and Child (www.bodymindandchild.com), hosted by Rae Pica, an early childhood expert with 30 years of experience in the field.

The agreement will give HPA members and parents access to the latest insights in early childhood development. The program will be Nanocasted on the HPA web site at www.hpakids.org, distributed through the HPA newsletter and made available for download to the organization's members and parents via podcast.

"We share a common mission with HPA, namely to nurture and develop the whole child -- body and mind," said Rae Pica." This relationship is a natural fit, and we look forward to collaborating with them to encourage parents to make informed choices on behalf of their children."

HPA President Larry Palevsky, MD, adds, "This new resource will help HPA achieve its goal to honor and respect the innate potential of the child from pre-conception through childhood and into adulthood."

About BAM Radio Network:
The BAM Radio Network was launched to address the severe imbalance in parenting practices caused by the "commercialization of parenting" and the emphasis on intellectual development that excludes the critical role of the mind/body connection in early childhood. Created by leading early childhood experts, the programming challenges the popular genre of parenting notions that has given rise to commercial products like Baby Einstein, Brainy Baby and lapware, all of which claim to accelerate a child's mental development in the face of science that suggests otherwise. The network is a joint venture between New Hampshire-based Moving & Learning and Los Angeles-based Jackstreet Media. The program is distributed through the Affiliate Nanocasting Network.
