The educational provision for early years is growing and changing
across many parts of the world, not least in the UK. While this
book leans heavily on the mounting literature on early child
development in its broadest sense - physically, emotionally,
linguistically - its central focus lies squarely on the growth of
children's scientific thinking and activities. Written by
educators, this book is based both on formal educational research
and professional practice-in-action. The authors describe
children's science concept development; their curiosity-driven
exploration; emergent ecological literacy; their learning through
science play; the assessment of early learning; the role of parents
and practitioners within early education contexts; and some
question the very basis of the science being taught. Illustrations
and examples of practice are not confined to the UK, though the
messages to be derived from each chapter have application way
beyond the immediate context. This book was originally published as
a special issue of Early Child Development and Care.
