Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale: Keeping books readily available will stimulate reading skills. This is the question that will provide the most information about learning/reading skills. Language and getting along with others are more communication skills. Rewards are more closely related to discipline.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale: Health promotion for the toddler includes whole milk until age 2. Age 1 is too early for low-fat milk; and it can safely be introduced before ages 3 and 4.
