Every year the Week of the Young Child (WOYC) provides an opportunity to reflect on the magic that is early childhood. Created by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), WOYC has been celebrated by early childhood education programs since 1971. Following the themes set by NAEYC, DIEEC put together activity guides for programs to incorporate into their daily experiences for the week. Although these activity guides are meant to be part of the WOYC celebration, they can be used throughout the year. The topics of music, working together, food/nutrition, art, and family can be incorporated into any lesson plans!
