The renowned educational theorist Piaget said that "play is the work of children." When children take genuine pleasure in the process of learning, they are really playing. It is indeed how we all learn at the deepest and most lasting level. Play and Learn: Puzzles and Fun combines the excellent games, activities and poems from two previous books, Puzzles and Fun and Super Puzzles and Fun. New material enhances this thoroughly attractive, delightful and useful book.
Divided into four seasonal themes for year-round fun, the book includes every kind of puzzle and game that young children just entering their reading and writing years can play easily with pencil in hand. The puzzles, games, poems and riddles all contain rich information in a wide variety of subject areas, from colors and numbers to natural history and weather. The collection as a whole enhances the child's reading, math and thinking skills, promotes a wide variety of logic and problem-solving skills, and brings hand-eye coordination practice to new levels.
While full of educational value, this book looks anything but, with its endearing art and amusing content. A detailed index of objectives for each activity is included at the back of the book for teachers and parents. Created by the award-winning editors of Chickadee magazine, winners of top honors from the Educational Press Association of America, and the Parents' Choice Foundation, this newly updated volume will be welcome in homes, schools and day-care centers.
