Early experiences and relationships lay the foundation for how your child grows and learns. Brain studies show that a flurry of important learning takes place during infancy through preschool and early primary school years. Quality experiences during this time can make a difference in your child's later success in school and as an adult.
Depending on your child's age, a number of early childhood programs are available to support your family and child: family and center child care, Head Start, public schools, and special needs resource services. Regardless of the program you choose or utilize, look for caregivers who understand child growth and development. Watch to see that caregivers allow your child to make meaningful choices, explore with all five senses, and learn at the rate that is best for him or her. |
