Learning and Development in Infancy and Preschool

By Marla Maudson

LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT IN INFANCY AND PRESCHOOL

Children are eager to learn when they are born. The first five years of life are a period of rapid development for language, thought, social, emotional, and motor skills. A healthy child actively participates in this growth from the moment of birth. They explore their surroundings, learn how to communicate, and quite quickly start to develop ideas and beliefs about how the world works. However, the amount and frequency to which the child's learning preferences are met and engaged by supportive circumstances will determine how quickly they learn. There is little doubt that a child's environment during development has a significant impact on what they learn and how they develop.
The following three key phenomena have drawn the public's attention to preschool-aged children's education and care:

1. the historically high rate of mothers with small children participating in the labour force, which is driving up the cost of child care;

2. a growing agreement among experts and, to an increasingly large extent, among parents, that young children should be given educational experiences; and

3. the mounting body of research that shows young children are more capable learners than present methods suggest and that quality preschool education can have a positive influence on school learning.
