Providing quality services and reaching out to parents with tailored support during this critical period pays off with increased cognitive skills, significantly improved education outcomes, and better starts to life. - “The first years are the most important in life of every child as they set the basis for overall success in life. They are also very important for every society as this is the best chance to influence future prosperity, inclusiveness and social stability. Early childhood development is considered to be the most powerful tool to address inequities, a chance to provide opportunities to all children to develop their full potential. Every child is needed, and every child has the right to get a good start“, In the insuring discussion we also touched on: - 'Zone of proximal development': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zone_of_proximal_development - Neil deGrasse Tyson: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_deGrasse_Tyson - Stoicism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoicism - International Baccalaureate Junior Curriculum: http://www.ibo.org/programmes/primary-years-programme/curriculum/ - 'Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Dragon?
