Week of The Young Child
Posted on 03.31.2023, Friday

NAEYC invites us to celebrate and shine a spotlight on our classroom, advocacy, and family engagement activities via our social channels during the week of April 3, 2023 – April 7, 2023. The goal of Week of the Young Child is to continue spreading the word about the importance of high-quality early learning, and the critical role early childhood educators play in a child’s development and learning. At the Partnership, it’s our hope that you continue to be inspired by the activities and resources below.
