Over time, the structure and content of education has evolved, influenced by economic, political, scientific, and psychological events and discoveries. Emphasis on early childhood education has grown significantly in the last few decades, as we have learned more about physical and psychological growth and development. It is important, as an early childhood educator, to be familiar with key developments that have shaped the early childhood programming we have in the United States today.
