Description

Now more than ever, the
health and safety of children requires the collaboration of educators, program
administrators, healthcare professionals, communities, and families.

Understanding children's health; creating, implementing, and following sound
health and safety policies and procedures; and learning to treat and respond to
health concerns and emergencies are critical to the success of every early
learning program.

Developed by pediatric physicians, healthcare providers, and early childhood educators, the fully revised sixth edition of Healthy Young Children focuses on how education and healthcare professionals can work with children and families to promote physical and mental health and provide safe and healthy environments.

Highlights of the new edition include discussions on

  • The need for increased
    safety measures and training
  • The latest nutrition
    and physical and mental health standards and guidelines
  • The importance of
    creating and updating health and safety policies and procedures
  • The impact of the
    COVID-19 pandemic on children, families, healthcare professionals, early
    childhood educators, and early learning programs

    Plus, new features provide

  • Recommendations for
    making family connections
  • Tips for health and
    safety actions that can be implemented quickly
  • A test bank of over
    150 questions for instructors
  • A full and extensive
    list of references (available online)

    This text references national standards and guidelines from organizations including the American Academy of Pediatrics (Caring for Our Children), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP).
