Celebrate Week of the Young Child® at your Academy!

Celebrate the young children of your Academy during the Week of the Young Child®! This annual celebration

sponsored by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) brings public attention to the

needs of young children as well as highlights the families and early childhood programs which promote their early

learning. Shine a spotlight on the importance of early learning by planning special activities which incorporate the daily

themes throughout the week!

The Life Essentials curriculum is filled with dynamic and engaging activities related to each of this week’s daily themes.

Below you’ll find several additional activities and books that can be used to supplement the curriculum as you celebrate the Week of the Young Child®!
