Hello everybody,
This week, the book of the week is I love dirt: 52 activities to help you and your kids discover the wonders of nature, by Jennifer Ward.
This book isn’t only for Child Care students and teachers. It’s for anyone who has access to young children; parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents, carers and friends. It is written simply and divided into sections spring, summer, fall and winter. Yes, it is American, but can be applied to every country in the world.
It has been written to address the “nature deficit” that today’s children often have – rushing around and settling for indoor play with computers and electronic games.
Each short chapter has suggestions for activities and answers to questions children are likely to ask. Interestingly, the chapter headings, the questions (called “help me understand”) and the illustrations are all in green.
I love dirt is now available at your library.
