Customer Reviews
I'd debate the word "games" in the title, as although some were games, there was far more focus on tasks and activities, and a bit too much chanting (the author obviously likes chanting) for my liking.
Probably better for nurserygroups and schools rather than parents with one or two children, although some of the ideas were still applicable to one-on-one scenarios.
Best to try and have a browse of it in a bookshop first if you can to see if the style and activities suit your situation.
As I said, there are good games in here for younger children, but for older children there are better resources available. I'll be returning my copy of this book.
