• The Science of Early Child Development (SECD) provides resources for BC educators interested in keeping abreast of current research. Resources include readings, videos, links, questions for reflection, and interactive activities. From the latest research into babies’ brain development and the impact of early experience on well-being, to topics such as child rights, literacy and the importance of play, SECD explores how nature and nurture interact from conception to construct a foundation for development. These SECD materials are appropriate for professional development, parent education workshops and staff training
