For young girls and groups that are underrepresented in tech, early experiences can be pivotal. OECD Education analysis shows children under 6⃣ can develop computational thinking skills, incl using letter & number symbols for coding (representation) or fixing problems (debugging)

Thanks so much MotherTonguesIreland & Early Childhood Ireland for showing me that immersive PLAY👶🏽🤸🏽‍♀️🛝🥳🪁 is the key tool for supporting bilingual children! There's no need for additional tools, language is acquired when we interact with one another, and babies are the best at this 💚

Another inspiring & super practical video!Thank you Early Childhood Ireland & MotherTonguesIreland 🤩Rather than getting stuck in a rut of asking "what's this," I'm learning to follow my daughter's lead, to focus our interaction on something she's interested in or a game she wants to play👧🏻
