Lally, J. Ronald
Young Children, v51 n1 p58-67 Nov 1995
Notes that the differences between infant/toddler care and preschool care have been ignored in all but the best programs and day care homes. Examines child care policies and practices from the perspective of their influence on infant/toddler identity formation, including continuity of care and curricula that are responsive rather than intellectual.
