Description

From the early years of my academic journey, I developed a profound passion for early childhood education, which has since evolved into my profession. With over 16 years of experience spanning academia, research, and industry, I have dedicated my career to understanding and enhancing early childhood learning. As part of my postdoctoral fellowship, I spent two years working with early childhood education centers, designing and implementing age-appropriate science experiments for preschool age group children. Throughout this endeavour, I observed firsthand the enthusiasm, curiosity, and excitement that young learners exhibited when engaging in science activities. This experience reinforced my belief that introducing scientific concepts at an early age—without imposing pressure—fosters a long-term interest in science and nurtures a scientific mindset. This book is designed to serve as a comprehensive resource for parents, teachers, early childhood educators, policy makers, and researchers seeking to understand how science can be effectively introduced to young learners. Each chapter of this book answers key questions: What, Who, Why, How, Where, When, Whom, and Which. The first chapter helps you understand “What is science?” The second chapter explores “Who are young learners?” The third chapter explains “Why is science important in the early stages?” The fourth chapter provides insights into “How science should be introduced, where, when, and by whom?” In the fifth chapter, I have included 15 science experiments, ranging from simple to complex, with detailed explanations for each. To understand children’s grasp of science activities, assessment plays a vital role. Since children belong to a younger age group, choosing the right assessment process is crucial. The sixth chapter discusses “Which assessment options are suitable to measure the impact?” In summary, this book serves as a valuable guide for introducing science activities to young children, fostering their curiosity, and cultivating an enduring interest in science throughout their educational journey.
