" Children are blank Canvases, Each person  that touches them is a brushstroke on their lives"  Anonymous
I love this quote because children thirst for knowledge.  At young ages we mold children's minds and help them develop their own  opinions ,  satify their curisoity,  and how they view experiences.   Children have the ability to absorb so much information.  If we engage them the will become a masterpiece.  They will want to learn and they will be confident. 
My favorite children's book  is the giving tree. It teaches children about love and sacrifice.  It describes to them in a way they can understand how to care for someone and give with out expecting anything back.  As my son says like how a mother takes care of her children and how when your mother gets old you need to take care of her.

Extreme poverty leads to stunted development, limited future productivity as adults, and inte...

Research Simulation

                             Why is your simulation important to the field of early  childhood? My simulation regarding the difference in quality of early  childhood education between high and low income levels is  important because All children should be afforded the same quality  education no matter what their economic status.  Once we can identify the gaps in quality we can fill the voids and ensure all children are provided the same education.  If you were to conduct your simulation proposal, who would benefit? The simulation will not only benefit the children in low income  areas it can benefit the educators by identifying gaps in the programs so they may be addressed and better programs put into place.   What are some of the ways your perceptions of an early childhood professional have been modified as a result of this course? My percept...

Immunization

According to vaccines.gov safe and effective vaccines have eliminated some diseases like small pox and Polio which in the past have killed thousands of people.  New vaccines are only releases and administered after long and careful research.  Getting vaccinated and following a schedule can protect not only children and adults but also babies who may not be of age to receive certain vaccines. (vaccine.gov). The importance of getting vaccinated against worldwide illnesses before traveling outside the United states is extremely important to protect yourself from diseases we do not have in our country and to ensure not bringing the illness back to our country and causing an epidemic. Pneumonia, diarrhoea, malaria, measles, HIV/AIDS and malnutrition are the primary killers of children in the developing world. These children die because they are poor, they do not have access to routine immunization or health services, their diets lack sufficient vitamin A and other essential mic...
