Mother Earth is a social enterprise that aims to connect rural Indian artisans to domestic and global markets in order to alleviate poverty. It incubates artisan-owned business groups that produce handicrafts and provides support such as market access, design inputs, and working capital loans. Mother Earth has its own retail stores, partnerships with major retailers, and an export business. It projects that by empowering artisans' cooperatives over 5 years, it can directly impact the incomes of 20,000 artisans and indirectly impact 30,000 more, aggregating $10 million in increased artisan incomes. The model is a hybrid social enterprise approach that aims to sustainably develop artisan communities through fair trade.

The document discusses Benjamin Bloom's taxonomy of educational domains, which identifies three categories of learning: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. The cognitive domain involves the development of intellectual skills and knowledge. It has six categories progressing from simple recall to complex evaluation. The affective domain deals with feelings, attitudes, and values, with five categories from awareness to organization. The psychomotor domain involves manual and physical skills, but Bloom's group did not elaborate on this domain. The taxonomy aims to describe the goals and progression of the learning process.

Early childhood spans from birth to age 5 and involves remarkable physical, cognitive, socio-emotional, and language development. Key physical milestones include walking, running, and fine motor skills like scribbling and cutting. Cognitively, children progress from sensorimotor thinking to representational thought, such as pretend play and understanding of symbols. Socio-emotionally, children develop self-awareness and understanding of emotions while learning social skills through family and peer interactions. This period lays the groundwork for further development across multiple domains.
