"Education of a child in the early years is crucial. They start to use the five senses as young as few months old to 4 years old. That range of age is the best time for the child to absorb his or her surroundings. "The child may not be able to talk but she/he can hear, see, feel, smell and touch things and the learning process is actually taking place from there," said Irene who operates Taska Kristal Ria Yayasan Sabah in Sadong Jaya.

She added that they strictly comply with the requirement in operating a pre-school for quality services. "Our emphasis is on the child's early education, where we do lots of interaction to as young as a two months old baby. This is already part of the education they gain. "I encourage parents who have babies to take the chance to interact with their little ones so that the babies will grow healthy in terms of thinking," said Nelly who operates a pre-school in Penampang called Sunduvan Care Kids.Stay up-to-date by following Daily Express’s Telegram channel.
