Chapter 1...The Importance Of Early Learning
While there are arguments against early learning such as...children should be allowed to be children and there's plenty of time for learning when they go to school or that they’ll become bored in school if they’re taught too much too early…the benefits of early learning are just so high in number that it’s difficult to ignore them.
Early learning has the advantage of being the EASIEST time to learn. The main reason behind this concept is that the younger a child is, the less distractions there are which make it an optimum time to be teaching a child.
Although many parents have negative associations with trying to learn new tasks and this can also often be difficult and stressful for older children as well, young children have an innate interest and fascination in the world around them and a keen desire to learn.
The natural willingness and positive attitude towards learning that young children possess is another leading factor in the argument for early learning.
It’s obviously very important that babies and young children are allowed to play and have fun but the fact of the matter is that young children are constantly learning while they’re playing and they actually do gain great pleasure and enjoyment from their play sessions.
Playtime with our kids is a perfect opportunity for early learning and as long as they're enjoying it, it should definitely be encouraged.
Just remember that a young child's brain is like a sponge and that they absorb incredible amounts on a daily basis. As parents, we can do a great deal to help our children fulfill their potential, while also ensuring that the early learning process remains fun.
