This book, and the international research on which it is based, is set against a backdrop of acceleration in early childhood and ever more measured and assessed young children. Thinking about ‘slow’ offers possibilities for reclaiming ways of being with young children that enable an ‘unhurried child’ and less hurried adults.
It is a timely and hopeful book, rooted in examples of early childhood practice, that provides new ways to reclaim play-centred practice. Theoretical concepts about time in early childhood education and care are brought to life with practical examples of ‘how to be slow’ across 11 countries. A further strand discusses how to ‘teach slow’.
