Description
The Growing Child: Laying the Foundations of Active Learning and Physical Health By Clair Stevens This book explores how children's early physical experiences shape their future health and well-being. It considers the importance of everyday practices such as exercise, diet, sleep, and physical play in developing the whole child. Physical activity plays a crucial role in children's development, influencing organisational skills, team work, risk management, communication, and self-esteem. The book also discusses how to create stimulating play environments that encourage learning, make connections, and explore using the whole body. Effective observation and planning are key to engaging children's motivation and creativity. By reflecting on their teaching methods and working with parents and carers, practitioners can provide every child with an equal opportunity to succeed, regardless of physical, emotional, or cognitive needs.
