During the children’s development, they will experience a phase called the golden age. This phase is the most crucial stage in children's development because they will grow and develop rapidly. This phase is the foundation for developing cognitive, motoric, socio-emotional, religious, moral and language abilities. Regarding the development of children's language skills, it will be optimal if it is conducted with stimulation from the surrounding both from the parents or family and the teachers. This literature study discusses the importance of directing and fostering the children’s language skills from early childhood and activities that can support the stimulation process of early childhood language skills. The results of the literature review show that children’s language skills must be directed and nurtured since early childhood. A person's language skills show his intelligence in expressing certain words and sentences regularly and precisely. For early childhood, the best stimulation is given by singing activities. Singing activities cannot be separated from social relations, both with the environment, society, friends, and family. By singing activities, children will be introduced to how to respect others, to put themselves in a new environment, and train their ability to communicate.

Language skills, the key elements for children’s development, are often used as a benchmark to measure the development of all abilities he/she possessed. For early childhood, time spent at school is an opportunity for them to develop their language skills, especially expressive language. The storytelling method often found in PAUD is still less innovative. This triggers boredom and result in neglecting learning process that is detrimental to students, especially in improving expressive language skills. The use of relevant techniques in extratextual activities during the learning process combined with the storytelling method will be very helpful for children. There are 12 extratextual techniques for teachers to do and nine techniques that can be done by children. These two categories of extratextual activities can make the storytelling method richer and ensure the achievement of learning targets specifically related to children’s language acquisition. This extratextual activity can trigger the development of children's expressive language in terms of adding new vocabulary, increasing the meaning of old and new vocabulary and developing vocabulary into sentences in everyday conversation. The conditioning carried out in the application of this extratextual activity also has a positive influence in terms of four aspects of language development, namely the development of phonology, semantics, grammar and pragmatics. In phonology, children are strengthened how to pronounce the alphabet correctly; in semantics, children get meaning reinforcement and additional meaning from a vocabulary; on grammar and pragmatics, improvement is given to the arrangement of correct grammar when old and new vocabulary is used in conversation.

Autism is a developmental condition that can be detected in early childhood. Early intervention can improve outcomes, though many children are not identified until they reach primary school. Early childhood educators are well placed to monitor children’s development and identify those who may benefit from additional supports, though implementation of standardised tools and processes is limited. The National Disability Insurance Scheme in Australia has increased the onus on educators to support families to access funded services. A workshop on evidence-informed practice in early detection for autism was provided for early childhood professionals. The theory of practice architectures informed development and analysis of pre- and post-workshop surveys to explore changes in early childhood educators’ perspectives on factors influencing universal developmental monitoring and referrals to early intervention supports using an evidence-based tool, the Social Attention and Communication Surveillance-Revised (SACS-R). Post-workshop increases in early childhood educators’ perceived knowledge and confidence are evident, though recent policy reforms present challenges. Population surveillance using SACS-R in early childhood education is effective for identification and referral for children who have autism, and capacity building for professionals to use SACS-R is recommended.

IntroductionEffective stimulation and responsive caregiving during the first 2 years is crucial for children’s development. By age 3–4 years, over 40% of children in sub-Saharan Africa fail to meet basic cognitive or socioemotional milestones, but there are limited data on parenting and childcare practices. This study, conducted to inform the design of a mass media intervention, explored practices, perceptions, motivators and obstacles to childhood development-related practices among parents and caregivers of children aged 0–2 years in rural Burkina Faso.MethodsWe performed two rounds of six focus groups with 41 informants in two villages, using an adapted version of the Trials of Improved Practices methodology. These first explored beliefs and practices, then introduced participants to the principles and benefits of early childhood development (ECD) and provided illustrative examples of three practices (interactive ways of talking, playing and praising) to try with their children. One week later, further discussions explored participants’ experiences and reactions. Data were analysed inductively using thematic content analysis.ResultsExisting activities with young children were predominantly instructive with limited responsive interaction and stimulation. Participants were receptive to the practices introduced, noted positive changes in their children when they adopted these practices and found engagement with children personally rewarding.ConclusionInteractive, stimulating activities with young children did not appear to be widespread in the study area, but caregivers were receptive to information about the importance of early stimulation for children’s development. ECD messages should be tailored to the local sociocultural context and consider time limitations.
