Starting Young explains why it is vital to pay attention to what happens to children before they reach school, and ways in which their development can be supported. Based on Save the Children's experience of working with early childhood development programmes around the world, this booklet identifies the key arguments for supporting the development of these programmes. It analyses the kinds of early childhood work that are the most appropriate and explores the potential for achieving real, and sustainable, benefits for children.
