Customer Reviews

Great resource book

Contains great activities for the preschool classroom and the explaination of why you should use them. This is a wonderful resource for the classroom or at home. It helps explain why the activities are developmentally appropriate for the specified ages. This book is very well put together. This book stands at the forfront of my teacher resource collection.

A treasure trove of great ideas

This book is terrific. It's packed with fun and inspiring ideas that work just as well at home as in a preschool setting. I find that I turn to this helpful book time and time again when researching my own parenting articles and books. Highly recommended.

A Great Resource and Guide for Planning

I have had this book for only one week and love it. It helps me plan by month and breaking the month down to week by week. I teach 3 year olds and they have enjoyed the items I have selected. These children are very challenging and to keep them occupied in "learning fun' is a challenge.
