    Hi, I'm Agnes I'd like to work with young children a lot. So if I accumulating my knowledge with children it will be much better to know the appropriate skilled development.Highly important to know their stages and the activities that are relevant to their developmental stages. As we know the early childhood they learn through play its important to develop them holistic, and meet their best interest.we prepare them to become a better future by laying a good foundation phase.
