Publisher's Synopsis
Farmyard Adventure is another book in the Storycises™ range for pre-school and primary school aged children. The story is designed be acted out by children and adults alike. These 'action' stories create fun and interaction from the moment the first page is turned and all the movements are based on the natural stages of child development. They are designed to give children repeated practice with important fundamental movement skills which are vital for learning and independence, in school and for sport, in a way which fires up their imagination and provides both fun and pleasure.
As well as working on important motor skills, the children will be working on other areas of their development - for example, vocabulary, concepts, listening skills, memory, language and early literacy skills. All of these are important for success at school!
The Storycises™ books are written by two experienced paediatric physiotherapists, Wendy and Jane, who have been using the same principles to help thousands of children achieve success in many areas of their lives - from handwriting to ball skills, from sitting on a chair without fidgeting, to increasing confidence to try new activities.
Both seen children's physical ability change over the past 20 years. They developed Storycises™, initially as a programme for schools, to help children improve motor skills and have now created a series of books so that even more children can benefit from the stories.
Fun whilst learning has always been at the heart of what Wendy and Jane do as physiotherapists - we hope you enjoy our books!
