Abstract

INTEREST IN THE YOUNG has gradually filtered down the age scale so that now even babies come under the spotlight of serious attention. Whereas at one time children were treated as miniature adults and expected to behave as such, nowadays the character of each age group is respected and its needs are catered for. In many cases formal education from the age of two and a half replaces the free activity of the play group for the under‐fives. But parents are constantly exhorted to evoke response from their baby even earlier by dangling brightly coloured objects over his cot, filling his environment with gay pictures and selecting educational toys.
