The early years are valued by early childhood educators—and families—throughout the world. Programs may vary, typically reflecting and supporting the country's culture, but all share the goal of encouraging young children's development and learning. These online resources provide an overview of early childhood practices in other countries and allow us to compare and contrast them with our own teaching strategies.
This issue includes articles appearing in the journal, resources expanding on journal articles, and articles published here for the first time. A resource list gives links to the other Web sites with pertinent information on international early childhood education topics.
