The giant encyclopedia of monthly activities for children 3 to 6 - Kathy Charner

With over 600 activities,The GIANT Encyclopedia of Monthly Activitiesis the result of a nationwide search for the most unique, fun, developmentally appropriate, and educational experiences for children. The activities included were selected as the best-of-the-best, and are organized by month for easy use by teachers. Teachers will love the creative ideas that span the traditional areas of the curriculum such as science, math, art, and music and movement, as well as the additional experiences including field trips, cooking, and holidays. Each activity includes instructions and a list of materials, plus possibilities for extending the activity further into the curriculum. Many also include lists of related children's books to further both literacy and imaginative play. Loved by children because they're fun, and by teachers because they are developmentally appropriate, the ideas inThe GIANT Encyclopedia of Monthly Activitieswill captivate children's imaginations and create wonderful opportunities for learning.
