Developmental Domains

Children’s experiences in early education programs can have a profound influence on their cognitive, social, and emotional development. In these settings, interactions with educators serve as catalysts for children’s healthy development. Yet too few children today are in the types of high-quality early learning environments marked by warm, cognitively stimulating exchanges. This review summarizes research on the features of settings that promote growth in children’s skills across a range of developmental domains, then describes research documenting these features across today’s early education and care landscape. Turning to strategies for cultivating these features across the diverse early education and care system, the discussion focuses on the central role of the educator. The conclusion draws implications for ongoing public preK expansion and quality improvement efforts, as well as highlights opportunities for future research to further these efforts.

Education And Care

The importance of the earliest years of life has been recognized throughout history. Many philosophers and religious leaders have commented on the power of early experiences to affect the rest of a child's life. Early education leaders sometimes provided manuals and other materials to assist parents in educating their children at home, but schools for children under six are a very recent phenomenon. During the twentieth century, education for young children under six has become increasingly common, but this level of education is still not an integral part of most school systems. Perhaps the twenty-first century will see the development of seamless early childhood programs, preschool through third grade.
