Summary "This book is based on lengthy observations of three-year-olds in the United States, Russia, Estonia, Finland, Korea, Kenya, and Brazil. The focus is on how children spend their time, and who they are with, at an age when they are learning what it means to be a part of their culture. The book provides unique insight into variations in young children's lives in different societies and from different social-class groups. This book also has a clear theoretical rationale and illustrates how the observational methods were based on the theory."--Publisher's description.
