Evolution of Early Childhood Education
Early childhood education is a rewarding and fast-growing field to be involved in. Over the years the field has changed in many ways. Firstly, most experts believe that children should start Kindergarten with more than a basic understanding of numbers, colors and letters. The belief that young children can easily learn and retain knowledge is proof that once they get to Kindergarten they should already be primed to learn the core elements as well as some advanced learning.

Education and Cognitive Development
Early childhood education has evolved into the technological stage and focused its development on mental processes at an earlier age. As a result, a child’s cognitive development stage is being affected. Cognitive development is the acquisition of mental processes that are needed for thinking and making sense of the world around you. This includes a number of skills including logical reasoning, interaction and processing, and storing and using information.
Impact on Cognitive Development
Preschool enrollment has increased dramatically over the last few decades. Approximately 75% of four year olds and 50% of three year olds are enrolled in a preschool center. Early Childhood Education research has shown that preschool has an impact on a child’s cognitive and social development, with the greatest impact on minority and disadvantaged children. Due to the brains extreme susceptibility during the preschool years, not only do preschoolers develop cognitive skills they need, but also socio-emotional skills. Researchers have found that during this early period of childhood development, children are able to boost gross motor and language skills.
