Advice that fits in your life

This is great advice for parents of young children -- not only because it is true and instructive, but also because it can be easily practiced in the real world of hectic family life. The authors help you use everything -- from a trip to the grocery store to a trip cross-country to see Grandma -- to reinforce learning for your little ones. It's scholarly thought seen through a giant common-sense magnifying glass. The message is all about simple, practical ways of making your child's world the kind of fertile soil that lets her bloom and grow in her learning. Bravo!!
