Comprehensive resources for parents and professionals in play-based early childhood education

The Fred Rogers Center


The mission of the Fred Rogers Center is to advance the fields of early learning and children’s media by acting as a catalyst for communication, collaboration, and creative change. The group is focused on the positive potential of television and new media for supporting the healthy social, emotional, cognitive and physical development of young children.

The Fred Rogers Center Early Learning Environment focuses on early literacy and digital media literacy, by sharing resources that support learning and development in children from birth to age 5.

In January 2012, the Fred Rogers Center for Early Learning and Children’s Media and the National Association for the Education of Young Children issued a joint position statement on technology and learning.
