Recenzii


This book is a joyful, playful exploration of the very nature of young children emphasizing their need to run and jump and play and take risks and try things out and the ways that adults can encourage physical play, allow for risk-taking, and still provide a safe, nurturing environment.
—Gaye Gronlund, author of Individualized Child-Focused Curriculum

An exceptional resource for teachers everywhere who are struggling with the question of how much physical risk to allow or promote in their programs, this book will go a long way toward restoring developmental common sense to our views on children’s needs for risk, physical challenge, and autonomy in their play—to build, in Jarrod’s words, a “culture of resilience.” This is a timely and important book.
—Todd Wanerman, author of From Handprints to Hypotheses and Including One, Including All

What a courageous and inspiring book! Jarrod Green tackles the sometimes confounding and controversial issues for teachers around physical play and the constant decisions that they have to make about what is safe and what is appropriate, essential risk. Teachers help create a childhood for each child and Green guides teachers as they navigate this often neglected area of curriculum. Green makes a compelling case for not only the role of physical activity in building resilience but how it can enhance and expand children's self-esteem. All teachers will find this book thought provoking and supportive and their students will greatly benefit from having teachers who better understand their physical needs.
—Belann Giaretto, Executive Director of Pacific Primary
