Children change rapidly. Not only in the physical sense but in their abilities to communicate, think and to interact. This development is fascinating and has a huge impact on the care, education and wellbeing of children.

Focusing on the earliest years (0-8) this book looks at:

Theories and context of development
The impact of policy and the wider world on children
Cognitive, biological, language, emotional and social development
Disorders and development
Health and development
The role of the adult in development.

Understanding these elements is key to early years practice and courses. With the help of this book you will appreciate why it is so important and the impact of your role as the adult on children in your care.
