Kids Are Our Future

Early Childhood are the most vulnerable stages in a persons life, it spans the human life from birth to age eight.

Early Childhood Education refers as the education of children from preschool through grade three. It often focuses on children learning through play. Young children, such as infants and toddlers experience life more holistically than any other age group. They do not learn cognitive, social, emotional, and physical lessons separately. The term, “early childhood education,” is often used to describe preschool or baby/child care programs.

A growing body of research demonstrates that high-quality early childhood education plays the critical role in students’ success, not only in the elementary grades but also throughout their whole lives. Researchers and educators in early childhood education both view the parents and/or families as an integral part of the early childhood education process. What are the educators and parents believe really do matter on early childhood education.

Because young children are in the fastest growing stages, they need receive sufficient nutrition for their brain and other physical development, they need parental/caregiver interaction, and stimulus during this crucial period, they need attention and affection from their caregivers to develop in a healthy manner. Otherwise, the child may be left with a developmental deficit that hampers his or her success in preschool, kindergarten, and beyond.

Parents, educators, researchers, and policymakers are all becoming increasingly aware of the role that high-quality early childhood education plays in the success of students not only in the elementary grades, but throughout their lives. What are the effective ways of early childhood education? How parents can choose a high-quality preschool and kindergarten for their child? How parents can help on educating their young children?

In the following several posts, we would like to discuss these topics. In order to help children build a solid foundation towards their future success, as parents, let’s learn and improve our parenting knowledge and skills on early childhood education together.
