Book Reviews of For the Children's Sake: Foundations of Education for Home and School (Child-Life Book) (Child-Life Book)

Book Review: A chance to remember what childhood was ment to be...
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is great for all parents/teachers to read. The things learned(or just reinforing what we have always known) can be applied in our everyday lives with our children. It helped to remind me of what childhood is for. A chance for our children to learn about the world they live in at their own pace. Through their own thoughts, feelings and desires, learning what is right for them as individuals. Yet not giving us the right to neglet some basic requirements they will need to get through life as adults. We can teach our children the Three R's and still have them enjoy learning. Education is a life long process to be enjoyed, anticipated and used to our benifit. Here is my favorite thought from this book "...an education which shall qualify their children for life rather than for earning a living." What a great idea! Children ready for life. A desire we all have for our children and a way to accomplish that goal is written out for us in this book.
