Publisher's Synopsis
Give a pre-school child from birth to six years of age an UNPRECEDENTED, LIFELONG advantage, simply by using Educational Child's Play to stimulate their brain. A book that provides fun play-based pre-school child development activities when a child needs them, in the early years from birth to six years of age. This book is for parents, pre-school teachers, Early Childhood Educators, Day Cares, and anyone who wants children to be the best that they can be. Simple things like reading and telling stories to a child at 18 months; or joining a three-year-old child to play with a bucket and sand; or helping a four-year-old throw a ball in the playground, are powerful stimuli for brain development in the early years. These activities are laying the foundation of brain development for future learning, behavior and health. This book provides preschool children with what science is saying they need in the early years, simply by reading them the stories, and using the play-based activities in Educational Child's Play. This book is dedicated to helping pre-school children from the ages of birth to six years of age be the best that they can be. To achieve that, this book has TWO DEVELOPMENTAL STORIES: A Walk In The Jungle - a story to help children develop cognitive, behavioral, emotional and motor skills. Gordy Visits The Mountains - a story that uses play based movements to develop pre-school children. PLAY BASED ACTIVITIES: Play based activities that scientists are saying children need in the first seven years of life. THE SENSORY ENVIRONMENT - Setting up the environment to develop seven senses. Sensory environments can enhance learning and cognitive growth. USING PUPPETS IN YOUR STORIES: gets children actively involved in the stories and activities. FUN DAY ACTIVITIES: - Thousands of activities for children to try, or to be discussed. ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE FOR ANY PARENT OR CAREGIVER: How To Deal With Children's Behaviors; Developmental milestones and how to deal with the behaviors that accompany them. MOVING TO RELAX: is the same movements as in the Developmental stories, but in adult form. Educational Child's Play is an excellent Day Care or homeschooling program.
