It's a message that stressed-out parents are craving to hear: Letting tots learn through play is not only okay-it's better than drilling academics  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing on overwhelming scientific evidence from their own studies and the collective research results of child development experts, and addressing the key areas of development-math, reading, verbal communication, science, self-awareness, and social skills-the authors explain the process of learning from a child's point of view. They then offer parents 40 age-appropriate games for creative play.
