Abstract:
In this paper I argue that young children’s agency is important for their development and learning. I begin by exploring definitions of agency and children’s agency. I then consider why young children’s agency matters, before troubling some problems associated with young children’s agency and proposing potential ways forward in reifying young children’s agency.
