Review
I am very pleased and impressed with the Robertson text. It has more information, is much more current, contains a wealth of supportive pedagogical devices, and can sustain readability more easily than our current product.
?I believe the students will respond very well to the author?s writing style.
The most impressive features of the textbook are the sections which discuss the implications for caregivers as they reflect [upon] the roles and responsibilities of caregivers in relation to chapter topics. Other impressive features are the tables, charts and checklists within the textbook. These items provide excellent resources for the students to reference as they cover the material within the chapters.
The emphasis on knowledge of child development and implications for caregivers section in many of the chapters helps make the connection between theory (and knowledge) and practice (providing for the safety, health, and nutrition of children).
The writing style is both friendly and authoritative so that students feel comfortable reading the material as well as confident that the author is presenting topics accurately and without undue bias. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

This review is from: Safety, Nutrition and Health in Early Education (Paperback)
I ordered this textbook, as it is required for an online course I am taking called Health, Safety and Nutrition in Early Childhood Ed. I had an older version of this textbook,when I last took the course, before having to withdraw. That version was easy to follow, and very helpful in completing my assignments. I know this version will be the same, if not better because it is an updated version. Whether or not you are taking an online course, or are a parent, daycare provider or a Early Childhood Ed Teacher who wants to keep informed of and update, I highly recommend this text.
