About this title

Synopsis

In today's competitive world, many parents think they are giving their children an intellectual edge by implementing what they have heard are early-learning techniques. Now the writers of this award-wining book bring a gust of fresh air into the nursery by reminding us of the importance of playtime. Children don't come with instruction manuals, but sometimes it seems like everyone has an opinion on how to make your child into a mini-Einstein. A winner of a BOOKS FOR A BETTER LIFE award, this book sifts through years of developmental research to give you a clear message: learning really happens through playtime. More than a book about parenting, this guide is a joyful celebration of childhood and the imaginative and nurturing play that should be so much a part of it.
