Children are Born Learning

Together we shape their learning. What if every child had five years of education before kindergarten? The reality is that children are learning constantly, right from birth. And what they learn during those first five years depends on the experiences they have each and every day. The Born Learning Initiative is designed to help us - parents, grandparents, caregivers, child care professionals, teachers and others - in the critical role of a child's first teacher.
