Publisher's Synopsis
This is a guide to observation techniques for all those working with children under eight years.

The authors show the aims and objectives for observing children and illustrate the many different methods of recording what has been observed. They also provide guidance on observing children with special needs and devote a whole chapter to suggested activities for promoting developmental progress. For easy reference, the book ends with a detailed breakdown of the developmental milestones.
