Rating: Summary: Great activities for kids! Review: Absolute Best Play Days, by Pamela Waterman, is an extremely valuable resource for planning themed activities for children. This is a book that we librarians will use to get ideas for our 2-to-6-year-old story times. We like to structure our story times around various themes and the ideas presented in this book are great--really creative--and also very do-able! That's definitely a plus! Thanks!
Rating: Summary: Active parent Review: I was pleased to receive my copy of this book as it provided me with many valuable tips, games and ideas to occupy two very active children and their friends.The style of the book is easy and comfortable, giving valuable advice in how to constructively occupy growing minds in an appealing manner. The children, and their friends, have enjoyed many of the activities, so far, and I'm sure will continue to do so. Thanks to Ms Waterman for this invaluable resource.
Rating: Summary: Great resource! Review: This book offers a wealth of activities to inspire and entertain any child and parent/friend/teacher for a year. This is a great resource for anyone interested in providing fun educational activities for children ages 2-6.
Rating: Summary: The Absolute Best Activity Book Review: Well organized. Comprehensive. Creative. An excellent resource for teachers, parents, and caregivers. As a mother of girls aged 4 years 9 months and 3 years, I was searching for activities that they both would enjoy and that I could adapt to their different levels of development. This book is a lifesaver! For each theme, the author, Pamela Waterman, provides several Art projects with simple instructions, a few Indoor activities, suggested Musical activities or songs to sing, activities to do Outdoors, Books to check out from the library or buy, Videos to rent or buy, and special snacks to make. All theme related. Most using supplies that are easily found around the home or inexpensive to purchase. There is even a section called Hints for Your Own Situation that includes tips for older children. You can follow the themes from A to Z, or skip around to various favorites as I do. With 52 Weeks of Themes, here are a few:
Astronomy
Bugs
Circus
Detectives
Firefighting
Hair
Musical Instruments
Pirates
Restaurant
Surprises!
Theater
Wheels
Zoo
