5.0 out of 5 stars
Great for 3 - 9 yrs olds, April 30, 2005
This review is from: Play Lightly on the Earth (Paperback)
This book Inspires eco-awareness in kids, with delightful games & activities - plus insightful recommendations for teaching young children.
The games & activities in the book are based on sound scientific concepts with an emphasis on creative thinking (making an earth pizza or running through a field in your socks), problem solving, and skill development-all in a guise of play. From high-energy activities to quiet time visualizations (close your eyes, pretend your a baby bird preparing for your first flight from your nest).
Jackie's upbeat approach helps establish teachable virtues among our young Earth citizens: empathy & caring for wildlife, respect & responsibility for the Earth, resoursefulness, self-reliance, & cooperation among species. Use this book to create rewarding memory-makers.
