Say Hello to the Year of the Rat

It’s not often you want to be a rat, but 2020 is the Year of the Rat in the Chinese calendar, and North Park Center is celebrating. There are some pretty admirable rat traits for babies born this year. Think instinctive, alert, and quick-witted. Year of the Rat children are said to be popular, adaptable, and do well in social situations.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends bringing your child when the first tooth appears, or by about age one.
