Taking an Interest
Early childhood education is also known as
nursery education where the infants or the
toddlers are educated on from the birth up to
a certain age of let's say 8 years, which is a
critical stage of growing up. This education
gives the children the learning which are based
on the development of care and education
based on integral part of human nature and on
human society. This processed is been taken
places for a long period of time and has
emerged with time across different cultures
and different counties (Feller et al,2016). The
education is also reflected in the families and
in different communities as the education on
child caring and on child development is
spreading day by day.
Sleep
During the initial stage, a toddler spends the
maximum time by sleeping which helps in the
maturation of the brain as well as on the body
and the nervous system. Moreover, sleeping
covers all the functions of the body which
starts framing from the initial days. A normal
child sleeps twelve to sixteen hours a day and
with a gap of few months, the sleeping order
changes in a decreasing manner. Sleep can be
described as a biological expression but it is
subjected to the behaviour of the child
through the day, it turns out to be habit of the
child if he/she is not provided with proper
amount of sleep.
Meal Time
Meal is an important part of any human
beings. So similarly, meal is also a crucial part
of an infant as it tends to become a routine in
their life. Meal does not mean giving the child
only with food but it actually means providing
the child with the proper nutrition which their
body demands at that age.
By the age of 9 months, a child tends to
understand the tastes and quality of the food.
Around that time, a child needs a lot of iron
rather than protein which does not imply the
ratio to be different in terms of food. So a
healthy combination of food tends to make a
child more powerful and more active. Most
importantly right quality of food and right
quantity of sleep helps the body to adjust and
grow strong.
Being involved
The inauguration of the kindergarten long back
started from the spreading of such awareness
based on children, where in this phase
children are not taken much care. So many
countries like India, Europe, Brazil, China and
much more. Have evolved on the education
based on nursery training to the children. In
kindergarten, mostly the children are taught
by playing, by some outdoor games, by making
cartoon videos which shows up important
messages which they might learn like
emotional or based on social obligations. So
the students are involved in all the activities
are which are performed in the lower schools.

Nappy Change
This is a difficult stage for the parents where it
conducts the disposition of the nappy. A clean
nappy must be maintained because of the
hygienic culture which every parent needs to
follow. Changing of the nappy must be
conducted 12 times a day which gives the baby
comfort and freshness. If the nappy is not
changed, the baby may face many problems
such as, bacteria, problem of the skin
breathing and allergies which in turn may
make her cry and gives rashes in that part of
the body.
Transition
Transition is more like change from one stage
to another stage. A change in different stages
is crucial as this is highly necessary. To make
the children more sincere and a proper
education the parents needs to focus on child
education also. By giving them warning signals
which they need to follow and obey the rules.
The next is by developing rituals which
includes a set of time given and control on
different things. By making them behaviour
more kind and tender towards the elders and
by making them obey their parents. It can be
also maintained by keeping their language
simple and by offering choices(Elango et
al,2015).
Persisting with difficulty
The education on children is spreading day by
day and the parents are getting awareness and
are also focusing on the education system of
the growth on their infants. They need to face
with difficulties to strive harder in life and
become successful.
Expressing an idea or a feeling
Children need to express their feeling or ideas to
their parents. But a small age they are not able to
discuss with their parents. But at the same time it
the responsibility of them to create that kind of
atmosphere.
Taking responsibility
Firstly the child needs to understand
that responsibility means a vduty which
they need to serve to achieve some
gaols in life. The parents needs to teach
their children to be responsible so that
anybody can count on them, keep their
words which they have promised to
someone. Next turn is to be obedient so
that the child does not question on the
authority. The most essential part in
making a child learn how to take up
responsibilities is to understand the
balance between over managing and
under managing them.
Short term Review
All the moral values which are inculcated
in them help them to become a better
What next?
The initials years of a child is important as
this age gap tends to be crucial as this

human being in the future and give them a
remarkable result. Hence all sorts of
learning give the children a base in their
studies as well as in their future careers.
The basic development structure of the
environment is of 4 types:
 In this category, a 2 years child
learns from their senses and from
their visibility about the world which
surrounds them.
 A child whose age is about 7 years
tends to grow on the development of
their memory and their imagination
world.
 The third stage is up to 11 years
where a child becomes more aware
and understanding on their
imaginations, thoughts and beliefs.
In this stage, the children tend to
express their own thoughts and their
own beliefs.
 Around the age 11 or more, children
tend to grow more mature and they
can apply logic and solve their own
problems and even some can decide
their future.
gives them a base on the emotional, social
and physical evolution. Each child begins
to adapt some qualities from their parents,
learn about the world and even tend to
build some characteristics from their own
imaginations which are believed to be the
education they gained from their parents.
So, the education from the elders has a
huge toll on the next generation. Children
need proper education and proper
teaching which gives a shape to their
behaviour, their understanding of the
world and gives them better view of their
imaginary world (Britto et al, 2017). They
need to prepare themselves for
independence and to be self-satisfied. The
benefits which the child receives on their
early education are main motivator of the
moral values and beliefs that are exhibited
later in adulthood.
