Based on a rich seam of research evidence, this book leverages
value in engaging with scientific enquiry to further understanding
of young children's emotional experiences. Early childhood
development has featured increasingly prominently on international
policymakers' agenda in recent years. Yet whilst policy foregrounds
economic imperatives including academic attainment, school
readiness, and time-bound outcomes, similar attention has not been
afforded to the potential value of nourishing affective engagements
that may secure 'emotional capital' for infants and young children.
This collection from the field of early childhood is therefore
timely. Its chapters are based on empirical evidence derived from
contemporary scientific studies, and address challenges and
opportunities inherent in young children's emotional experiences in
diverse twenty-first century early childhood education and care
contexts. The authors provoke debate, discussion, and critique, and
they ask significant questions of the policymakers, practitioners,
and carers who may influence young children's lives and their
emotional experiences. The findings that are presented in the
chapters indicate overall that a test-based approach may detract
from young children's emotional development as well as the positive
affective experiences in early childhood which have potential to
provide an important foundation for a fulfilling life. This book
was originally published as a special issue of Early Child
Development and Care.
