Let's Learn Kentucky

Let’s Learn Kentucky, developed and curated by KET, is a resource hub for parents and caregivers ​​​navigating the early ​years, from birth through the time they enter school, a formative time for children’s ​​development.

 

Preparing for Kindergarten

In Kentucky, "School readiness means that each child enters school ready to engage in and benefit from  early learning experiences that best promote the child’s success and ability to be  Ready to Grow, Ready to Learn & Ready to Succeed."  Parent resources are provided through the Governor's office to assist parents in preparing their child.

30 Million Words | NO SMALL MATTER a film about early childhood education

Words are always around. From words children hear from parents, relatives, even television are words they will grow up using. To ensure that your child can and will be successful all you have to do is talk to them. From words like apple, because, coffee, or danger children will soak up whatever they hear around them. Every day errands can be a golden opportunity to expand your child's vocabulary.
