Early Learning and Child Well-being in Estonia

This comprehensive report from the OECD presents detailed findings from Estonia's participation in the International Early Learning and Child Well-being Study, offering valuable insights into how early childhood experiences shape development. The research carefully examines both cognitive abilities and social-emotional skills in young children, providing a holistic view of developmental milestones. Parents and educators will appreciate the clear connections drawn between children's learning outcomes and their experiences both at home and in early childhood education settings. This evidence-based approach to understanding child development offers concrete data about what truly supports young learners.

What makes this research particularly valuable is its international perspective and rigorous methodology, giving parents and educators reliable benchmarks for child development. The findings provide practical guidance for creating supportive learning environments that nurture the whole child—academically and emotionally. While primarily geared toward education professionals and policymakers, engaged parents seeking to understand early childhood development principles will find the data illuminating. This report ultimately helps adults make more informed decisions about the educational experiences that best support children's growth and well-being.
