The Week of the Young Child, April 16th through the 20th, is an annual event hosted by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. Daily themes, such as Music Monday, Tasty Tuesday or Work Together Wednesday, provide children an opportunity to learn through everyday activities. K-State Research and Extension child development specialist Bradford Wiles says children can learn math, science, language and literacy, as well as develop creativity, social skills and fine motor skills.
