What is childhood like in Finland? What kind of practical solutions have been created and evaluated that aim at both providing good childhood experiences and supporting children's positive development? What practices aim to prevent child exclusion from regular education and social experiences and to foster children's healthy development in emotional, social, and behavioural terms?

This book considers the reality of childhood in Finland. It discusses the realisation and evaluation of early childhood education and addresses aspects of research and practice concerning children under the age of 10. It examines the growth and development of young children, how learning and teaching are organised, practices of rearing children and the state of child care in Finland.

Contributors represent a variety of universities and sub disciplines in the science of education and focus on perspectives of children's well-being, special viewpoints of early childhood education, care, and research in Finland.

This book was originally published as a special issue of Early Child Development and Care.
