Review ------ Fun Baby Learning Games by Sally Goldberg PhD is a wonderful resource filled with 200 ideas and activities that develop motor, cognitive, language and social skills through playful games with your infants to two-year olds. As founder of the Child-Centered Divorce Network, I emphasize the importance of maintaining a close bond with your child, especially during challenging times within the family. Dr. Sally offers simple, easy to follow steps, all backed by research, to keep parent and child engaged, enjoying fun together time and stimulating all the senses. Every parent, child-care center and preschool would benefit from this thoughtful how-to book. --Rosalind Sedacca, CDC I have known Sally and her work for a very long time. She tells me often how important the first three years of life are for later success. That is one of those things that sounds good but is actually hard to believe. Now with this book, that idea is clear as day. The best feature of Fun Baby Learning Games is the organization. There is high-quality information about every age and stage of development from birth to age three. In addition, there are activities for each one that include simple instructions for how to do them and why. Here is the main theme that she follows Through play-and-learn techniques you can keep fostering development every step of the way in these five areas: cognitive, motor, social/emotional, language and self-esteem. She says in many different ways that every minute counts! I highly recommend this book for every new parent and grandparent. --Bob Elam I love Sally s book. It is user-friendly, informative, practical and positive. This would be an excellent book for any parent, grandparent or child care provider of young children. Support of an infant, toddler, and two year old s development and self-esteem Is the basis for y development in life. I recommend Fun Baby Learning Games. -Brenda Nixon, M.A. I love this book. The "play-and-learn" system that Dr. Goldberg presents is supported by extensive rigorous scientific research. However, this is not a dry research report. On the contrary, it suggests simple, inexpensive (or free) activities that are fun both for baby and parent. Each of the activities is directed toward a specific area of development at a specific stage of your baby's development from infancy to three years of age. Dr. Goldberg explains each activity; why it is important and how to play it. Each of the five areas of development-cognitive, social-emotional, motor, language and self-esteem are addressed. The simple activities are brilliant and FUN while also aiding in baby's development of essential skills through guided play. Fun Baby Learning Games is a rich and invaluable resource that will provide hours of FUN for your child and yourself. --Susan Augir Read more ( javascript:void(0) ) Book Description ---------------- Fun Baby Learning Games Activities to Support Development in Infants, Toddlers, and Two-Year-Olds ?Sally Goldberg, PhD Parents and caregivers often seek ways to stimulate their little learners, but don’t know where to start.
