Many individuals around the world are advocatinfg for young children and families. It is not surprizing to know that the well being of children and families is of vital importance. The magazine, "Every Child" got my attention because of its focus. There was no specification of children, in other words all children regardless of race, culture, color or creed were looked at. What is important to note is this issue of Every Child magazine focuses on improving outcomes for children, with a special focus on the role of quality relationships in providing the foundation for young children’s future wellbeing and success. This was amazing not surprizing!
What other noteworthy information did you find on this website?
Very interesting - the latest e-newsletter topics included - Recognition of Indigenous Australians. This topic was interesting since there was a portion in our course we had to consider Indigenous people in research. This was sort of new to me.
Indigenous Australia map- Risk-taking lessons not learned in over-strict playgrounds. Should we take this risk or not take the risk? I believe taking the risk could help children develop problem solving skills and learn safety lessons.
