Early childhood is a significant period in human development. It is the time when children begin to develop independence, initiative, decision-making ability, creativity, early literacy and numeracy skills, the ability to learn, the ability to relate to others, verbal communication skills, and feelings of self-worth. What young children learn at this stage will have a major impact on successful learning experiences in school, on personal development and on future participation in society. Young children begin all this important learning in a variety of environments - in their homes, in school and in the community. Children arrive in school from diverse backgrounds and with a variety of experiences.
