Power of the Ordinary Slide Show

About the Slide Show...

Child looking at leaf

Any place. Any time. Anywhere. The possibilities of learning are endless. Everyday child life is made up of ordinary but powerful family and community activities and experiences.

These everyday experiences provide children with many kinds of learning opportunities laying the foundation for their future growth and development.

The Power of the Ordinary Slide Show uses documentary photography of young children's everyday lives to illuminate the positive things families, caregivers, and communities do each and every day to support young children's learning.

Power of the Ordinary features children ages birth to six years of age from diverse economic, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds, including children with and without disabilities and typically developing children.

Begin your journey through the exciting world of ordinary, yet powerful experiences of everyday learning.
