A strong TK environment doesn't rush children toward formal academics. It gives them developmentally appropriate ways to build the skills they need for everything that comes next.

Through blocks, art, music, movement, storytelling and lots of hands-on investigation, children build language, social skills, creativity, problem-solving, and confidence.

Don't miss this year's TK Institute in Santa Clara, CA this November. Explore new tactics, hear about the research and connect with the professionals shaping the world of TK in California.

Some of the most meaningful early childhood experiences happen in spaces that look and feel like home.

Family childcare educators create environments where children can learn in small groups, develop strong relationships, explore everyday materials, spend time across age groups, and experience the comfort of familiar routines.

A living room can become a dramatic play center. A kitchen can inspire math and science. A backyard can become an outdoor classroom.

Early childhood education doesn't happen in just one kind of setting and that's something worth celebrating.

Advocacy doesn't always look like a testimony at the Capitol.

Sometimes it's the email you sent. The meeting where you didn't back down. The moment you said, "this child needs more," and made sure you were heard.

Every time an educator speaks up, advocates for what's needed, or pushes for change, our entire field moves forward.
Share an advocacy moment that defines your commitment to children, families, or our profession.

School may be in session, but summer isn't over yet!

Break up time inside with time in the sun, embrace bright hues, and enjoy time on the grass. Outdoor moments offer children opportunities to move, explore, create, and reconnect with the world around them.

Whether it's reading under a shady tree, creating with colorful art, observing nature, or simply enjoying some unstructured play, there are still plenty of ways to bring a little summer into the school day.

How are you making the most of these last warm days with the children in your care?
