In the world of early childhood education, "research says" can be a conversation stopper. But at Pre-Primary Sources, we talk about the science of child development with researchers and practitioners to get a broader picture of what the evidence says and how it can be applied.

    No Benefit to Group Care Prior to Age 3? with Heather Bernt-Santy

    In the enormous child care care ecosystem conversation, there is an idea that one to one care, like a nanny, parent, or grandparent, is ideal until a child is three years old, at which point they are able to "benefit" from being in a group with other children. We look at this claim, the idea that group care is either not beneficial or actively detrimental, and talk about what quality of care really comes down to.   Sources: Eckstein-Madry, T, Piskernik, B., Ahnert, L.

    Coloring Pages and Creativity, with Tiffany Pearsall

    While there isn't often a hard and fast rule, coloring pages are often looked at as "busy work" or as having no place in a child led classroom, with beliefs about the potential for negative impact on children's creativity and discovery. Why would a child want to learn to draw independently if we have pages already made with all of the pictures they could want to draw! Surprisingly, there's very limited research on coloring pages and their impact on creativity... or anything else for young children.    References: Creative and Mental Growth (Third Edition) Viktor Lowenfeld Nurturing Creativity: An Essential Mindset for Young Children’s Learning by Rebecca Isbell and Sonia Akiko Yoshizawa Coloring-Book-Type Experiences and Children's Divergent Pictorial Production* N.

    Critical vs. Radical Scholarship

    Before we talk about specific research in early childhood, I wanted to talk about the history of the institution of science-- how it has served to both expand human knowledge and block out those it has deemed "unfit" to be in its halls, how unintentional bias and purposeful bigotry have made and maintained their way in, and how modern scholars can work to expand the canon of what we know and how we know it. Lizz talks with Dr. Bee, a professor of sociology, about bias, science, and what it means to be a radical scholar.
