Readers are encouraged to consider diverse perspectives, including history, psychology, sociology, education, ethnography, and human ecology when understanding how children construct and co-construct their identities over time.

There is a great need to understand children?s identities in early childhood due to the undeniable impact this can have upon their wellbeing and holistic development.
