Publisher's Synopsis
This is a source of activities and ideas for parents, playgroup leaders, and nursery and primary school teachers. All the activities make use of everyday household materials, and no special skill or knowledge is required. The emphasis throughout is on play, but the activities and games are structured in such a way that they build on and encourage development in particular skills, such as manual dexterity, recognition and shape, colour and size, vocabulary-building and use of imagination.
