Help Children Learn Who They Are

We think that the world could be a better place if we looked at it from the child’s perspective.
Ellen Hall, Educator, Author, Children’s Rights Advocate, 1947-2018

"When people talk about play versus a more academically focused program I really think of it as a very false dichotomy," says Dr. Elanna Yalow, Chief Academic Officer for Kindercare, in the newest Turn-Key DVD The Heart of Infant and Toddler Care.

"Children learn by interacting with the world around them. That's supporting the development of their brain circuitry...For a child, learning should be fun; they should want to explore the world around them. We should want them to learn who they are, not who we want them to be."
