For early childhood education,
6 South African adventurers are embarking on a journey to reach the summit of the world’s highest active volcano,
Ojos del Salado. They’re taking on this ambitious climb to raise awareness for Early Childhood Education and the work being done by The Unlimited Child. They are determined to succeed so that our children have a bright and prosperous future ahead of them.

The facts are in

The facts are in. Research has proven that unless children aged 0 to six years are exposed to the correct inputs such as learning colours and shapes through educational toys, their potential in life is severely limited.⁵

To give an example

Let’s say a child goes to a crèche with a quality early childhood education programme – their potential in life may reach 10 out of 10. Another child goes to a crèche where there is no learning that takes place at all – their potential in life may only reach 4 out of 10 – through no fault of their own. Not even the best teachers in the world will be able to increase their potential much above 4.

The solution

We have the solution and we need to act now. Our goal is to reach 5 000 crèches by 2021. Help us shift the minds of our children and give them a future today.

Who are we?

You might not know us, but 189 186 children across the country do.

Why Early Childhood Education?

If a child doesn’t go to a crèche or a pre-school to learn the necessary basic skills, it is unlikely they will ever reach their true potential in life.
