This fully revised new edition of Child Observation for Learning and Research provides a thorough grounding in the methodology, practice and interpretation of observing children. The book takes the unique approach of demonstrating how acquiring observational skills serves as a key learning tool for understanding both children and theory.

This new edition features a focus on inclusive practice and resistance to ableism, spotlighting the Rights of the Child with chapters exploring the deeper roots of child observation and notable theories of early childhood. It highlights critical perspectives on systematic child observations and updates current ways of working and learning in practice and research.
Each chapter includes vignettes illustrating real examples of observation, practice and research; key theorist and theory boxes highlighting relevance to learning and observation; end-of-chapter activities encouraging reflection on experiences of the observational process; and a wide range of references to support further reading and research.
