5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptionally well organized and thorough., March 25, 2000

This outstanding book for parents and caregivers of two year olds is the third in a series. It offers activities that promote total child development, including physical, mental, and the creative aspects of learning. The organization into easily located categories makes it easy to quickly locate an appropriate activity. As a grandparent-caregiver who used the books for Baby and One-year olds, I am pleased to find that the activities are just as well thought-out and age appropriate in this book as in the other two. The instructions are very clear and there are enough activities that even if only half of them were tried you would never run out of interesting things to do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book, confused about the price., February 19, 2011

Great book - lots of wonderful ideas for working with 2 year olds and even developing a classroom/daycare if that's what you'd like to do. As a stay at home mother we will be using this as a way to incorporate learning experiences that my son would otherwise miss out on as he's not at preschool or daycare. My only complaint is with Amazon - I purchased the book for just over $18 brand new FROM Amazon and within three days they nearly doubled the price, which to me is simply obnoxious price-gouging.

I love love love this series! It has tons of easy, inexpensive ideas to do with your kids and it's developmentally appropriate for each age. There's six books total- infants through age 5. So wonderful! If you enjoy these books you'd probably enjoy the Your Two Year Old, Your Three Year old etc series by Louis Bates Ames.
