Product Description
Designed for students on Early Years Foundation Degrees and Early Childhood courses, Early Years professionals and Teaching Assistants, this engaging text provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of early childhood.
Written and edited by experts in the field, the book clearly explains theory through illustrations of good practice, with case studies, reflective exercises and suggestions for further reading. Additional case studies and reflective questions for student or lecturer's use can be found on the SAGE website.
Each chapter has been revised with an emphasis on encouraging reflective practice and there are new chapters on:
- personal, social, and emotional development
- EYPS
- health and safeguarding children
This brand new edition has also been updated in light of the new Early Years Foundation Stage, and addresses the needs of students working towards Early Years Professional Status (EYPS).

i used this book throughout my 'foundation degree in early years', and used it in nearly every assignment! it is very readable and simple to understand with notes and references to guide the reader if you want to read more. it covers many different subjects within early education. its a must if you are doing the same degree that i have just completed.

I bought this book for my Foundation Degree in Early Childhood Studies and would not be without it! I am dyslexic and find many academic books hard to read and understand. However, this book is very well laid out, easy to read and understand and has everything you could possibly need-I used it in every assignment!!! If you are going to buy any books for a foundation degree or any child care course this is the book to buy!
Format:Paperback
