Encouraging a child’s EDUCATIONAL JOURNEY

Research shows that the first five years of a child's life are crucially important. In that short span, nearly 90 percent of a child’s brain develops, forming the complex map of neural connections that guide them through life.

The importance of that period — and the weight of the responsibility — is not lost on parents and caregivers. They are a child’s first teacher, after all; and many

acknowledge feeling anxious that they’re not living up to the task, said Kaitlynne Bolinger, a school readiness coordinator with Christian County Public Schools.

“It’s something I hear all the time: Caregivers worry they don’t have a teaching degree or say they don’t feel capable of knowing what to do when they’re at home alone with their child to build a solid learning foundation,” Bolinger said.

But they can take comfort in

the fact that children are born ready to learn, Bolinger said. And KET resources, such as the Let’s Learn Kentucky website, can go a long way toward helping parents and caregivers navigate those first formative years in a child’s development.

Let’s Learn Kentucky, she said, is an easy-to-navigate resource hub that provides a one-stop shop for answers about those early childhood years. The website shares what it

- Kaitlynne Bolinger School readiness coordinator with Christian County Public Schools

means to be kindergarten-ready and offers a variety of simple, everyday activities that parents and caregivers can incorporate into their child’s daily routines to encourage learning.

“When I first laid eyes on the Let’s Learn Kentucky website, I felt like the angels were singing because it was exactly the kind of resource I’d always hoped for,” Bolinger said. “KET does a great job of helping families feel capable and confident when working with their children and preparing them for school.”

Fostering a healthy home learning environment, Bolinger said, is all the more important as more and more families face a local shortage of quality child care centers. Christian County, she said, is what’s known as a “child care desert,” meaning most families don’t have access to outside care and often must rely on a network of family members, such as siblings and grandparents, to encourage learning in the home.

“What I love about KET’s Let’s Learn Kentucky resources is that they have this scenario in mind –and they make it easy for all stakeholders to feel like they play an important and impactful role in a child’s early educational journey,” Bolinger said.

She points to website’s list of six simple things that caregivers can do together with their child to

encourage learning: reading, talking, counting, moving, connecting and playing. Bolinger added that many caregivers already do these things without even realizing it.

“There’s an ‘a-ha’ moment when caregivers realize how influential something as simple as playing together can be,” Bolinger said. “But many things are happening in playtime. Children are developing cognitive skills through problem solving. They’re learning about cause and effect. And they’re practicing their fine motor skills. It’s all there. And that’s why I love the Let’s Learn Kentucky website so much: It shows that you don’t have to do big things to have a big impact on your child’s early educational journey.”

TODAY’S KET

Preparing children for their early years in school is essential to helping ensure they have a solid foundation for ongoing learning and success. KET is dedicated to serving Kentucky’s children, families, and childcare providers and has more early childhood resources than ever before.

Parents and grandparents can rely on the proven, research-based children’s programming – including Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood , Sesame Street and more –that can be seen on KET, the KET PBS KIDS Channel and a variety of streaming options.

KET also provides training for early care providers and educators, both in-person and online, making it convenient to enhance learning and attain required professional development credits.

As a longtime national Ready to Learn partner, we’ve developed hundreds of free learning resources and hosted popular community events and workshops throughout the Commonwealth.

And our latest resource, Let’s Learn Kentucky , is quickly proving to be a go-to source for parents and caregivers across Kentucky.

We want all children well educated so they can realize their dreams and aspirations. Through our educational programs and services, we’re helping today’s children prepare for tomorrow’s opportunities.

Sincerely,

Shae Hopkins

KET Executive Director and CEO
