In celebration of its 25th anniversary, ndds, (Nipissing District Developmental Screen) a North Bay-based non-profit organization, is announcing what it calls a new parent-friendly name and look for its signature developmental checklist.

Since 1993, ndds has been helping children worldwide reach their developmental potential by providing an easy-to-use checklist that encourages interaction between parents and health/child care professionals, according to a news release.

"The new playful, friendly name—the Looksee Checklist—reflects the simple, approachable quality of the product to appeal to even more parents. The series of checklists follow a child from 1 month to 6 years of age and provides a short list of yes or no questions about the child’s abilities along with tips to help them grow."

The checklists are available in a variety of languages and formats.

Families are invited to come celebrate this milestone and participate in fun kid-friendly activities at the Community Booth in the Northgate Shopping Centre on Saturday June 9th, from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
