Let children experience the learning power of play! Let’s Play
is a handbook full of child-led, open-ended learning adventures. The 39
fresh, fun, and budget-friendly activities (plus more than 225 play
variations) are packed with learning that helps children develop
important motor, cognitive, language, and social skills. These activity
starters were all tested by a slew of early childhood professionals and
approved by the children they work with. Building on the early learning
principles presented in the author team’s first book together, Let Them Play: An Early Learning (Un)Curriculum, they also support your transition to a play-based, child-led (un)curriculum.
