Summary

This authoritative text provides a thorough awareness and a thoughtful appreciation of children's play for perspective teachers in early childhood education programs. As the primary text for courses in children's play and early childhood methods, or as a supplemental text for courses in child development, human development, and child psychology, it offers a skillful blend of research and practical teaching strategies. The many roles of the adult are discussed: preschool teachers, day care specialists, inservice professionals, children's librarians, hospital play group leaders, and parents. A highly informative and useful reference.
