Thank you

 During my observations, I've learned the value of accepting children for who they are, where they are.  Children are important resources for us as early childhood educators.  We only get a few years to learn from them so let’s make the best of it.

 
 

Resilient children have at least one significant adult in their lives.

 While learning about the stages of development of children, I realized children are very complex. It is important for us as early educators to understand these stages and know how to help children navigate through them. If we are lucky, we will find ourselves being one of those significant people for a child.
 
 
I would like to express my appreciation to Dr. Myers and my colleagues for sharing their knowledge, work experience and personal stories regarding the early childhood education field. It has been wonderful getting to know you all.  Best of luck in the future.
