Kid Builders is an easy way to help your child grow in six areas: their mind, words, body, relationships, safety, and health. All of these areas are important for your child’s development and making sure they’re ready to succeed in school and in life!

Learning and growing is fun with activities and information from Kid Builders—and now, we’ve added new videos to help guide you along the way.

First 5 OC Celebrates Dads & Father Figures

A father’s presence and active involvement significantly impacts positive outcomes in early childhood, including higher academic readiness, stronger social skills, and greater psychological well-being.

Being a dad or a father figure can be challenging, and it is not meant to be faced alone. As a partner of the OC Fatherhood Coalition, we’re excited to share this resource guide made specifically for dads and father figures. Learn more about local organizations and programs you can lean on for support to help you give your kids your best.

Are you concerned about your child's speech and language development?

Your child’s words matter! As they grow, they’re learning how to express themselves, understand others, and connect with the world around them. Whether your child is right on track with speech milestones or still working toward them, First 5 OC is here to help. With simple activities and new videos, you can support your child’s language and communication skills in fun, everyday ways.
