Hosted by reporter and author Natalie Moore, 1,800 Days is a podcast from the Erikson Institute that explores early childhood care and education from its conception to its current state, along with experts’ predictions of its future. The podcast is named for the first 1,800 days of a child’s life (the time from birth to kindergarten), which is the most important period of development.
This podcast series documents the history of the past 60 years in early childhood development over five episodes, with insight from early learning pioneers, partners, and the ECE workforce.
1,800 Days will be of interest to early childhood educators and caregivers, and anyone who seeks a deeper understanding of the history and current state of ECE in the United States.
