Abstract

Early learning curriculum framework policy documents narrate and traject the experiences of children in early care settings. Together, we will review and discuss the positioning of the arts and aesthetic education in a sampling of early learning curriculum frameworks from around the world with an emphasis on how arts and aesthetic goals and principles are presented and actualized within the documents, and to what extent artistic dispositions and potentialities are being nurtured in young children. This focused discussion is useful for anyone committed to arts education advocacy and those interested in advancing arts and aesthetic education in the early years.
