Early Childhood: Where the Magic Happens with Margaret Larden
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The early years of a child's life lay the foundation for lifelong learning, development, relationships, and wellbeing. In this episode of Childhood Matters, we speak with author Margaret Larden about her book, Early Childhood: Where the Magic Happens, and the valuable insights it offers families and educators.
Margaret describes the book as a practical guide, much like a car manual that can be revisited whenever support, reassurance, or guidance is needed throughout a child's early years. Together, we explore why early childhood is such a critical period of development and how understanding children's needs can help us nurture their potential and create strong foundations for the future.
We acknowledge this land that we meet on today is the traditional lands for the Kaurna people and that we respect their spiritual relationship with their country.We also acknowledge the Kaurna people as the custodians of the Adelaide region and that their cultural and heritage beliefs are still as important to the living Kaurna people today.We also pay respects to the cultural authority of Aboriginal people visiting/attending from other areas of South Australia/Australia.
