5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful and creative ideas to encourage child development, June 28, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: More Things to Do with Toddlers and Twos (Paperback)

This book is full of wonderful creative ideas that might never occur to you. So many of this kind of book are comprised largely of things you already do with your child or that are so obvious its not helpful. This book is written from a child development perspective and covers all the basics, from suggestions on ways you might set up your toddlers room to maximize imaginative play, to fun activities that encourage language development. We also have the first book Things to do with Toddlers and Twos which is good, but this book is even better.

3.0 out of 5 stars Read Karen Miller's first book instead, March 8, 2006

This review is from: More Things to Do with Toddlers and Twos (Paperback)

While I agree with the first reviewer that author Karen Miller offers creative ideas on ways to interact with children, I believe this particular book is targeted mostly to teachers in a preschool setting - which is disappointing because I am simply a parent, not a preschool teacher. I wanted a book of activities I could do with my own children at home, not ways to decorate a classroom or how to get toddlers to interact with several of their peers. Sadly, the few ideas in this book that would work for parents are simply repeats of ideas already presented in Miller's first book, Things to Do with Toddlers and Twos. That said, I highly recommend her first book! I read both of them and found myself highlighting almost every activity in the first, while I ended up only skimming through the second. In Miller's first book, activites can be used by parents AND teachers, thus making it a more valuable resource for anyone wanting to engage toddlers in creative, hands-on activities.

I remember having the first book of Things to do with Toddlers and Twos for my daughter when she was a toddler. I ordered this updated version for my son and daughter-in-law for my grandson. They are very happy with it and excited to start trying some of the suggestions. So if you're interested in it, by all means, try it!
