We are delighted to introduce Volume 11 of An Leanbh Óg, the OMEP Ireland Journal of Early Childhood Studies.

Our guest editors for this special issue are Valerie Sollars of the University of Malta, MáireMhicMhathuna of the Dublin Institute of Technology, Jan Erik Johannson of Oslo &Akershus College of Applied Sciences, Norway, and Maelis Karlsson Lohmander of the University of Gothenburg, Sweden.
