[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the traditional pre-school model of 2 yo- 2 mornings a week, 3 year old, 3 mornings, etc is probably developmentally appropriate.  We all work for 40 years now it seems like it should be much more reasonable to take 2-3 years off for early childcare.

I really liked the point about dads being just as good as moms at early care.  Imagine if mom and dad each took a year off for their kid.  If it was normalized in our work culture (like the ceo who climbs k2) instead of penalized.  Kid starts preschool at 2.  It would make a big difference in behavior outcomes I bet.  [/quote]

No. Children needs free play, free space to explore. 2 years is too young for so many academics. 3 and 4 years old is a good age for preschool.

Young children needs love, patience, nurture and hugs and an Early Educator(Provider) to help them to learn to regulate their emotions.

Academics is OK, anybody can do that in any age. 
Learning good manners is most important. There's so many aholes adults [/quote]
