Social & Emotional Development Description
Find out what the research says about common early childhood program practices, such as playing “Simon Says” or holding children while feeding them—time-tested activities you intuitively know help young children. Social and Emotional Development explores the effectiveness of these early learning tools and helps answer the question, “Why do we do what we do?”
Children in child care centers often spend large chunks of time on activities without an obvious academic component, such as learning to dance to different tempos. Research shows, however, that these activities promote children’s social and emotional development.
This practical and accessible book explains the research behind many common, wise early childhood practices, as well as the shortcomings of others.
