This article describes how intra- and interdisciplinary learning experiences can activate the interests and capabilities among children in their early years. A developmental sequence delineates a series of stage-by-stage experiences describing the skill and content to be introduced and mastered in the teaching and learning process, which include developing readiness and receptivity, intradisciplinary thinking and learning, and interdisciplinary thinking and learning. The recognized differences among learners, the qualities inherent in providing advanced learning skills and concepts, and the development and reinforcement of basic and fundamental skills provides a readiness for more sophisticated learning in the early years. The importance of promoting understanding and facilitating the display of interests and capabilities among children in the early years can be activated by intra- and interdisciplinary learning experiences.
