The Bulletin is dedicated to the Hungarian pediatrician, Dr Emmi Pikler.
From the beginning, her goal was to promote the healthy development of the child. From the experience with her daughter, she knew that a child must not be stimulated to movement and to the game and that every detail in dealing with the child and his environment is important. She wrote and gave lectures about the care and upbringing of infants and young children.
In 1940 Pikler published a work Peaceful Babies - Contented Mothers the message being - you must trust the child and help him in discovering his increasing abilities and the world surrounding him alone, in accordance with his own personality and rhythm. It was went through several editions in Hungary and other countries.
In 1946 Emmi Pikler founded the Lczy Institute in Budapest. Under her leadership, and by the publication of books and scientific publications, an internationally known institution developed that is now managed by the child psychologist Anna Tardos. After Emmi Pikler retired in 1978, she continued her scientific and consultative work in Lczy. In the last years of her life she received more and more recognition in Hungary and other countries. In 1984 Emmi Pikler died.
