Through thought-provoking questions, informative articles, and enlightening discussions, you’ve really challenged me to think about my position as an infant-toddler professional in new ways. And you’ve changed the way I see infant development and learning. Thank you so much for making this course such a valuable part of my education and of my ongoing work.  I will be reflecting on your guidance for a long time to come.

On my upcoming book, Inspiring Wonder, Awe, and Empathy – Spiritual Development for Young Children: Deb Schein has successfully unpacked the meaning of spirituality for young children in this incredibly compelling and well written treatise that will engage early childhood educators, parents, and leaders in the field. Through her personal narrative, which is skillfully woven throughout the text, this gifted educator takes the reader on a journey to explore the many facets of spiritual development. We learn through these pages how to discover and nurture spirituality by carefully observing children as they engage in wonder and enquiry. Deb entices and inspires the reader to construct physical, social, and emotional environments that promote spirituality. Far beyond another teacher’s guide, this book touches the very soul of early childhood education, inspiring us to go back to our professional roots as well as move forward into a domain which is of utmost significance for young children in today’s world of academic necessity and pragmatic instrumentality.
