Drawing on the information from this class, create your bullet point list of "Top 5 Tips" - BE SURE TO INCLUDE ALL REQUIRED ELEMENTS: With each recommendation, provide a "rationale" for WHY families should consider this element Please ensure that the recommendations apply concepts and are not "common sense" recommendations that families would already know.
