Infant/Toddler Early Learning Guidelines

The National Infant and Toddler Child Care Initiative at ZERO TO THREE has released a document with an overview of existing Infant/Toddler Early Learning Guidelines. In response to the 2002 Good Start, Grow Smart initiative, States have developed guidelines for 3-5 year olds that align with K-12 standards. Some states used this momentum to establish early learning guidelines for infants and toddlers. This document is intended as a resource for States and Territories as they develop and revise their ELGs for infants and toddlers.
