In the early childhood environment it semms like every day is a series of problems to be negotiated. if Every human olved and out success depends on how we approach and deal with said problems.

Now for the part I love, being an early childhood teacher and a mom. Reserch has showed, since the 90'S that birth -3 is the time the brain lays the foundation for all problem-solving.

All problem-solving for the rest of the lifespan stqart here, during the first few years. And guess who's in charge of that?

And here's another fun fact, backe by current reasearcch.

During the first few years as all that framework for learning is built, the brain doesnt sifferentiate between cognitive and emotional learning. It just learns everything it csn.

Those problems aren’t necessarily divided into realms of eamotional social and cogivive learning. All learning is intertwined in the beginning of ife.

Some a adults feel that if a child has a problem, it’sw their responsibility to solve it for them or at learst help them love it.
