Week of the Young Child takes place April 6th - 12th in Science City, focusing public attention on the needs of young children and their families and recognizing the early childhood programs and services that meet those needs.

NAEYC first established the Week of the Young Child in 1971, recognizing that the early childhood years (birth through age 8) lay the foundation for children’s success in school and late life. The Week of the Young Child is a time to plan how we – as citizens of a community, of a state, and of a nation- will better meet the needs of all young children and their families.
