The early years (0 to 8 years) are the most extraordinary period of growth and development in a child’s lifetime. The foundations of all learning are laid during these years. Getting the foundations right carries huge future benefits: better learning in school and higher educational attainment, which results in major social and economic gains for society. Research shows that good quality early learning, early childhood education and early childhood development (ECD) programmes help to reduce the chances of dropout and repetition and improves outcomes at all levels of education. Pre-primary education gives children a solid foundation upon which all learning depends on, making every stage of education that follows more efficient and more productive.

Parenting Rules still rule
You’ve probably heard it more times than you can count – and said a time or two yourself – kids don’t come with instructions. The best you can do is love them, try your hardest to make the tough choices that you think are right for them, and defer to those who know better than you do when you’re in over your head. Sometimes, that might be your trusted pediatrician, while other times you’ll likely find yourself turning to other parents with a few more years of experience under their belts who have successfully navigated similar challenges. Children are very critical and imperative for deciding how the world is going to be in the future. Parenting forms an important aspect for the growth of children. The futuristic heroes need your guidance to be powerful and happier during their later ages.

Transform children with affection
A mother loves her child in so many ways throughout the day. There are the obvious things that may not scream “I love you” but that are fundamental to the loving role as a mother. These are things like providing a loving environment, cuddling, feeding, clothing, and giving shelter to your kids. It’s a mother’s privilege to love and provide for their child, but often we can be so busy doing this we forget to show love in little ways. Or, depending on our personalities, we can often get so busy showing love in these fundamental ways that we overlook the opportunities throughout the day to show love in simple ways. Few simple ways to love your child every day.
- Give them hugs (and don’t let go too quickly).
- Read them chapter books they can look forward to daily.
- Leave a note in their lunchbox.
- Give a kiss on the top of the head when you walk past.
- Notice something they’ve put effort into.
- Get eye level with your children when you’re speaking to them.
- Say “I love you and help them
