Synopsis
An activity can pass the time. An experience can change a life.
More than ever before, caregivers can embrace the joy of seeing young children learn from the everyday experiences in their lives. Picking up where its predecessor left off, More Infant and Toddler Experiences contains over 100 engaging ideas to fill infants and toddlers lives with experiences that reflect and celebrate each child s development. Meant to last a lifetime as opposed to simply passing the time these experiences help make the most of the caring interactions caregivers have with children.
The ideas contained in this sequel to the popular Infant and Toddler Experiences are based specifically on infant/toddler development rather than a watered down version of preschool practices.
A comprehensive resource, More Infant and Toddler Experiences will give both novice and experienced infant/toddler caregivers distinctive approaches and new experiences to try as they "grow themselves" in the field. All while building trust between themselves and the children in their care.
