As we near NAEYC’s hundredth anniversary, I’m reminded of something my parents used to say: “Honor the past, acknowledge the present, and build for the future.”
NAEYC promotes high-quality early learning for all children, birth through age 8, by connecting practice, policy, and research. We advance a diverse early childhood profession and support all who care for, educate, and work on behalf of young children.

By integrating pláticas, or sustained conversations, into their settings, educators focus on children’s strengths, interests, and abilities linked to their home languages and cultures.
