The Emma Eccles Jones Center for Early Childhood Education provides a comprehensive program for educational innovation, research, and dissemination. The major role of the center is to provide educational experiences and resources for teachers and parents that reflect the most current understanding of the social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development of children from birth through age eight.

New Resources for Preschool Teachers and Parents
http://preschool.uen.org

Utah is one of only 8 states that does not publicly fund preschool for all children in the state. UEN has created Preschool Pioneer Library modeled after the successful Pioneer Library for that critical and underserved Utah population, 3-6 year olds. We have vetted the games (Letter, Numbers and Me) on Preschool Pioneer to be only high quality, intriguing and FREE. In addition, we have access to PBS Kids Play - a site that currently costs $80 for a one year subscription. UEN has the opportunity to provide a FREE year subscription for many families across the state -I am happy to meet with parents, caregivers, principals, and teachers who work with young children or families with young to provide this additional opportunity lcohne@media.utah.edu.
