Summary:
"Now parents can take advantage of the training and experience of preschool teachers in Deb Ellsworth and Tina Charney's just-published book, Your Amazing Preschooler: How You Can Have the Same Capable, Confident and Cooperative Child at Home that Teachers Have at School. The book is filled with anecdotes and examples, tips and tools from the authors' years of experiences working with hundreds of young children. This lively real-life approach makes the authors' advice and ideas relatable and interesting. Unlike many parenting books, this book takes a positive approach, rather than a "fix the problem" approach. The authors see young children as inherently competent-as people who are driven to learn and grow more competent in all areas of development: social, emotional, behavioral, cognitive, and creative. They guide caregivers in using the young child's own strengths and level of development to help their child grow and develop into the capable, confident young person they are striving to become. Read this book for new insights into your preschool child, new (and surprising) ideas on how to enhance your child's everyday experiences, and new ways of thinking about your child. And enjoy many real-life examples and quotes of what preschoolers do, think, and say."--www.youramazingpreschooler.com.
