<\/span>Thank you for your wonderful presentation at the BJE event. I enjoyed listening to you and felt incredibly inspired by you. I too believe that as teachers we are facilitators and the moment we understand that, we open an entire realm of possibilities for our children.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t

<\/span>Thank you Deb for your leadership and persistence in bringing our interest forums together and pioneering this nifty collaboration! It was your vision that made it happen. It is really a wonderfully colorful illustration of how folks and interest forums with varying perspectives can work together and share unifying moments, such as where science, play and spirituality flow together.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t

<\/span>Deb is the\u00a0first person I contact with any questions about how very young children learn concepts. Her in-depth knowledge and experience is always a source of guidance for me and my work in science education.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t

<\/span>{Deb} bridged spirituality and STEAM, often something I have difficulty doing. I get the STEAM, but miss the spirituality, an innovative approach.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t

<\/span>I had been\u00a0looking forward to your\u00a0course since beginning\u00a0my Master’s degree one year ago. 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.\u00a0 I will be reflecting on your guidance\u00a0for a long time to come.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t

<\/span>On my upcoming book, Inspiring Wonder, Awe, and Empathy \u2013 Spiritual Development for Young Children:<\/i>\u00a0Deb 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\u2019s 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\u2019s world of academic necessity and pragmatic instrumentality.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t
