UNICEF cites critical role fathers play in early childhood learning
Childhood learning and development suffers from a lack of fathers’ engagement in learning and play as well as poor nutrition. In a new study from the United Nations Children’s Fund(UNICEF), the majority of three and four year olds do not have fathers who take an active role in care, attention, and play. UNICEF urges that improved policies and more spending are required to increase childhood programs and resources to support healthy children.

These environments are critical later in life for mental health, handling stress, and increased earning power.
