Meredith Kiger - Children's Literature

Okay, you've brought your new baby home. Besides feeding and caring for other physical needs, what do you do next? Here's the perfect book for new parents. Written and revised by an early childhood advocate, these 250 activities will put new parents at ease as they promote the development of motor, auditory and visual skills, language and cognitive skills or self-concept skills. The activities are divided in age ranges of 0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-9 months, and 9-12 months, and each is focused on a skill such as body awareness, bonding, auditory skills, eye-hand coordination and so on. The activities are simply written and use materials found in most homes. Many are activities that veteran parents will recognize, but new parents may not realize their importance to optimum child development. The book would be an excellent addition to any at home or commercial child-care establishment. Occasional black-and-white drawings accompany the activities and an index is also included. An excellent addition to a busy mother and father's repertoire. 2002, Gryphon House,
