By Michelle Rogers

Book Overview

This new text considers how society, economics, culture and progressive developments such as technology, refugees and reduced funding all influence the way in which the environments are considered and how babies and children interact with them. It examines the characterisitcs of good enabling environments and uses Bronfenbrenners Bioecological theory to explore the needs of children at different ages and stages of their development. The book also considers families dealing with crisis, specialist needs and virtual spaces. Focusing on diverse settings and including case studies and reflective questions, this textbook will be valuable reading for early years students and practitioners.
