Your Child's Learning & Development

Much like your child, you are motivated to learn by your curiosity.
Early learning occurs between birth and eight years of age, when your child develops more rapidly than at any other time in life. 
The most rapid development occurs in infancy. Compelled by curiosity, babies and young children are involved in serious brain construction, laying the foundation for how they will learn and who they will be in life. 

When children enter school, increasingly specialized areas of development are involved as they begin academic learning.

You can support your child’s learning at all ages by gaining a general knowledge about the stages of development and stimulating experiences that enhance learning, by observing his or her learning style and by being involved with your child’s caregivers, school and teachers.
