Description

This accessible handbook offers an in-depth exploration of the distinctive features of the play, development and learning of children from birth to three years old.

Key theoretical ideas relating to social, emotional, cognitive and physical development are discussed in relation to everyday practice, offering a wealth of information and guidance on working with this unique age group.

The book emphasises the connections between all aspects of a child’s experience and development; addressing key questions of what babies and young children need, enjoy and have a right to experience.

It demonstrates how early years educators can develop their practice and organise their provision in a way that is positive for babies and young children and their families.

Focusing on the holistic nature of early development, chapters explore the following:The importance of interactions and relationships between educators and childrenHow to develop a holistic pedagogy that gives equal consideration to children’s care, play and learningThe value of the connections that children make with the world around them, and how educators can create an environment conducive to nurturing these connectionsObservation and self-evaluation of practice and provisionEach chapter features case studies, links to key aspects of practice and practical tasks to help readers apply the ideas to their own context.

The book is accompanied by an extensive companion website (www.routledge.com/cw/Manning-Morton) containing video explainers, reflection points, practice tasks, downloadable resources, quizzes and more.

Opening a window on what it is like to be a baby or young child in an early years setting, this is an essential tool for all early years educators and students on a wide range of early years courses.

It will also be of interest to parents.
