Designed to help students and educators make critical theory-to-practice connections, this essential volume provides a deep yet accessible approach to infant and toddler language and literacy education. Centered around four foundational topics-language, interaction, and play; language and culture; multilingualism; and early literacy-each section starts with a chapter breaking down the research and theory, followed by two practice chapters, from both leadership and teacher perspectives, that illustrate key concepts across a range of infant-toddler contexts. Ideal for students in early language and literacy courses as well as programs on infant-toddler development, this critical resource helps readers thoughtfully and practically bring multilingual and multiliterate development to the infant and toddler years.

Focusing on the intersection of spatial justice, child rights, and planning policy, this book investigates the challenges of resettlement in East Africa, where half of those displaced are children.The challenges created by displacement and resettlement are often considered from an adult-centric perspective by planners and humanitarian and development experts. The spatial injustice of displacement and resettlement, the agency of children, and the application of tools such as Child Participatory Vulnerability Index (CPVI) is siloed, commonly overlooked, or discounted. This book uses a CPVI and rights-based assessment of land-use policies, to investigate resettlement due to conflict and settlement in northern Uganda, floods due to climate change in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and urban to rural migration of children due to the aids pandemic in Western Kenya. Case studies from over a decade of field research are integrated with examples from applied planning projects and policy development in the East Africa region. This book uses spatial justice theory to show how child-friendly planning approaches can positively promote child rights in the context of resettlement.Providing important insights on how to enact child-friendly planning in informal settlements, refugee camps, and displacement camps, this book will be of interest to planning and development professionals, and researchers across the fields of children's rights, Development Studies, Planning, and African Studies.

Unsere Kinder sind umgeben von einer bunten Welt. Von Anfang an kommen die Kinder in ihrer Umwelt mit Farben in Kontakt. Der Rahmenplan ¿Meine Welt ist bunt¿ enthält Ideen und Vorschläge, wie sie den Kindern die bunte Welt der Farben näher bringen können. Farben spielen in unserem täglichen Leben eine große Rolle: Als Zeichen und Signale im Straßenverkehr. Zum Ausdruck von Gefühlen/Stimmungen durch z.B. Kleidung. Als Heilmittel bei psychischen und physischen Leiden im Rahmen einer Farbtherapie. Als Schutz, zur Tarnung oder als Signal/Warnung bei Tieren durch die Farbe des Fells, der Haut oder des Gefieders. Als Zeichen dafür, ob etwas essbar ist oder nicht (grünes Obst ist meist noch nicht reif). Wir als Erzieherinnen können immer wieder beobachten, dass sich Kinder für Farben interessieren. Sie versuchen Spielmaterialien farblich zuzuordnen, benennen Farben ihrer Kleidung (¿Ich habe heute ein grünes T-Shirt an¿) und äußern Wünsche bei der Vergabe von z.B. Sitzkissen oder Trinkbechern. Bei diesem Thema geht es darum, dass Kinder sich selbst und ihre Umwelt kennen lernen, also bewusst sehen, bevor sie sich weiteres Wissen aneignen können. Darüber hinaus animieren Farben die Kinder dazu, sich mitzuteilen. Farben haben einen immensen Einfluss auf uns Menschen und begegnen uns im Alltag permanent in verschiedenen Formen. Ich wünsche ihnen und ihren Kindern viel Spaß auf einer Reise durch die bunte Welt der Farben.
