Childhood education refers to the process of teaching and nurturing children from infancy to approximately 8 years old. This crucial period in a child's life sets the foundation for their future academic success, social skills, emotional development, and overall well-being. Childhood education focuses on providing children with a safe and stimulating environment where they can learn through play, exploration, and guided instruction. It often involves a combination of early childhood education programs, such as preschool, kindergarten, and primary school, as well as parental involvement and support. Research in childhood education often emphasizes the importance of early intervention, individualized instruction, inclusive practices, and the development of literacy, numeracy, critical thinking, and socio-emotional skills in young learners.
