Book Reviews of Wonderplay
Book Review: A great guide filled with delightful activities.
Summary: 5 Stars
I found Wonderplay to be a most helpful guide for new parents or anyone who plays with children.As a parent of three grown children I'm currently utilizing some of the craft suggestions with visiting children and find that their parents are often delighted with the respite.Book Review: Practical and sensitive to the needs of parents and children
Summary: 5 Stars
As a single parent, I am always eager to hear of practical approaches to helping my two pre-school children. Living as I do in a rural area with little access to workshops and seminars, and with minimal opportunity to swap anecdotes with other parents, I am grateful for this wonderful collection of ideas and techniques for what to do with my kids. The authors obviously know their stuff, are tuned into kids, and are sensitive to the needs of parents. I wish they would write another book for helping with older kids also!Book Review: Excellent Resource for parents
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this to be a terrific resource for parents, full of fun activities and easy to use. It's a great gift for anyone who has a young child.Book Review: The best children's activity book I've ever seen.
Summary: 5 Stars
First of all, it starts with six-month-old babies with activities they can really do and benefit from. Second, it uses stuff that you really do have around the house, like pillows and blankets. I go mad with frustration when I have my 3-year-old all geared up for a great project and then realize that the seventh thing on the "You Need" list is a styrofoam vegetable tray that I don't have. This never happens with Wonderplay, because the activities are elegantly simply -- and inexpensive! And they really do foster creativity--my child's, not mine!Book Review: Great Fun For Your Kids and You
Summary: 5 Stars
I like the variety of easy to do activities in this book. It's so handy to have a book "do the thinking for you"... filled with great suggestions to choose from, some of which the entire family can enjoy. Ever since I had my new baby, I try to spend a few minutes daily with my 3-year-old while the baby is sleeping. My daughter looks forward to this special time together. She often asks to do something over and over again that I first found in this book. I would also like to recommend another quick-read guide that I have found helpful regarding play and quality time spent with friends and the family called "The Pocket Parent."
