In this bold challenge to the conventional wisdom about early childhood, Yale Early Childhood expert Erika Christakis offers a pragmatic program to encourage parents to rethink how and where young children learn best. Christakis argues that children are hardwired to learn in any setting, but when ''learning'' is defined by strict lessons and dodgy metrics, it devalues a child''s intelligence while placing unfit requirements on the developing brain.

Her message is energising and encouraging: children are inherently powerful and will flourish if we can revitalise the early learning environment.
