Early Childhood Education Curriculum successfully teaches current and future education professionals how to create meaningful curriculum for children from infancy through age eight. The author draws on decades of experience to teach others how to guide children through their early learning years by using knowledge of children's development, needs, interests, and cultural diversity in curriculum planning. A host of theories and concepts are introduced that stress the value of creativity, play, learning by doing, teacher/family relationships, and more. Concepts are introduced then reinforced throughout, promoting better retention and progressive knowledge building. The author employs highly effective learning techniques and successfully weaves each chapter's content and philosophy into the next, giving more meaning to the material as a whole.
