Children are the real revolution that human societies keep for the achievement of progress and civilization. We must all work to invest such revolution effectively to achieve advancement and prosperity. Thus, childhood has become today the main focus of world attention. And early childhood services have become a light stand of a lot of research and conferences. Accordingly, the childhood centers spread across the developed world, in order to develop the services provided to children in particular and workers in the field of childhood in general. This is to prepare the child to be creative and distinctive in various fields of life. The Gaza Strip like the other regions of the world cares about the issues of childhood and children and aspires to provide all the services available to the category of children, which is the largest age group in Gaza governorates. The presence of the Israeli occupation has a significant impact on the psychological instability of children.
