The Early Years (0-8) are the foundation for future success.About 90% of brain growth happens before a child enters primary school. The child's experiences - positive or negative - have a huge and lasting impact on the architecture of the developing brain. Early experiences lay a foundation for the child's future physical health, intellectual abilities, and character. The seeds of a successful life are planted in the first 8 years of life.
Young children are designed to learn.In fact, young children learn more effectively than adults.
The early years provide the best opportunity to make a positive impact on a child's future. |
