Reality Babies
RealCare Baby II, an amazingly realistic infant simulator that offers learning by doing. Baby requires feeding, burping, rocking, and diaper changing on a 24-hour schedule. It offers experiential learning by providing students with experiences that help make informed decisions about parenting. The parenting experience allows students to draw their own conclusions and discover for themselves what the role of parent feels like. It is an authentic task that is very close to real thing
We use Reality Babies to teach early childhood, parenting, infant health lessons, and sex education to young people.
Young people taking part in the course get to take home a computer tracked Reality Baby for a weekend, So they can gain knowledge of parent hood and to realise the difficulties of caring and supporting a baby 24 hours of the day.
