Week (or Month) of the Young Child
What is Week of the Young Child?
“The purpose of the Week of the Young Child® is to focus public attention on the needs of young children and their families and to recognize the early childhood programs and services that meet those needs. NAEYC first established the Week of the Young Child® in 1971, recognizing that the early childhood years (birth through age 8) lay the foundation for children's success in school and later life. The Week of the Young Child® is a time to plan how we—as citizens of a community, of a state, and of a nation—will better meet the needs of all young children and their families.” -https://www.naeyc.org/events/woyc/faq
Thank you to the CG PTO who has graciously donated all of the supplies we will use throughout the month to celebrate our young learners in a variety of ways. We are excited to start the first week of our month-long celebration by creating instruments, writing kind notes for our community members, tie dying, trying new fruits and vegetables, and so much more! We look forward to sharing photos with you all.
