Giveaway
Illiteracy and poverty go hand-in-hand with both having their roots in early childhood because 85% of a kid's brain is developed before he or she reaches the age of five. In conjunction with the Save the Children #FindTheWords awareness campaign I am working on, I am thrilled to be hosting a $100 giftcard giveaway.

ReplyDeleteMy son takes speech, I've been trying to buy more books and flash cards to help is vocabulary increase. This is important because it helps kids learn
ReplyDeleteeducation is the great leveler in our society. "By age three, there is already a huge difference in kids from low-income homes as they hear on average 30 million fewer words than their more fortunate peers. This puts these children 18 months cognitively behind those with more wealth by the time they start school." i find it sad & disturbing in the USA we have such economic disparity. we all want better for kids. if i win i will donate the money to a school.

ReplyDeleteNow is the time for education because our children's minds are like sponges at this time! And it sets the flow for success in the future. And the differences in young education between low and high income families is astounding.

ReplyDeleteEvery child needs the opportunity to learn. You'd be surprised how quickly they catch on to things and how quickly they learn! (:

ReplyDeleteWe need to create an educated society, starting as early as possible.
ReplyDeleteIts important to me so that we don't have large numbers committing crimes in the future.
ReplyDeleteI think that an early childhood education should be available to all children no matter what their families economic status is. To me it not only teaches a child knowledge but also equality and improves their self esteem throughout their life when they are given the same chances to succeed as children who come from a higher economic status. It will and can also impact the rest of their life and the choices that they make as to their future.

Early education is so important because children learn how to function in society in the first few years. Our future depends on today's children.
ReplyDeleteEarly childhood education is so important because sadly many children are falling behind in school. Even my step-son has a hard time with spelling and reading. So I've seen first-hand how crucial it is to teach them young!
ReplyDeleteEveryone needs to know how to read and write. Early education starts socializing with kids their own age as well. This is necessary for children for kids to feel they fit in.
ReplyDeleteIt's so helpful for them and everyone if they can learn early, plus it's fun to learn things then, no one should be deprived of that.
ReplyDeleteI read that 65% of little kids in needs have little or no access to books and that statistic scares me. Books seem to have fallen by the wayside in favor of technology -- but I think that children NEED to be able to sit down and read a book (especially the preschool chilldren).
ReplyDeleteIt is important because everyone needs an education regardless of their ability level and starting early is the best way to teach.
ReplyDeleteSmall children learn new things at a phenomenal rate. We need to harness this ability and teach children as much as we can.

ReplyDeleteIt helps build confidence and creativity

Children are growing and learning earlier than we ever thought, a good reason to start the education process early. An earlier start can also be invaluable to some who might need more time and attention to details in learning that would allow them to be better learners in their future educative years.
