We currently live in a two dimensional world of tapping and sliding
fingers on screens, but babies and young children need to touch,
taste, smell, shake and bang three dimensional objects in order to
develop thinking and learning skills. The Treasure Basket and
Heuristic play approach is all about offering natural and household
objects to babies and young children to play with. This simple
approach promotes extraordinary capacities of concentration,
intellectual curiosity and manipulative mastery. Full of resource
ideas and activities, this book offers accessible explanations of
how the under 3's think and learn, step by step guidance for
setting up play sessions and descriptions of the best materials to
offer. Featuring original interviews between the author and Elinor
Goldschmied, who was the pioneer of the Treasure Basket and
Heuristic Play, this third edition of Developing Play for the Under
3s has been thoroughly updated to include: A new chapter with case
studies to show how Heuristic Play can be offered to the 2-4 year
olds. A new chapter exploring the myths and misunderstandings of
this approach. Links to the Forest School movement. Research
evidence supported by case studies. The characteristics of
effective learning and how the Treasure Basket and Heuristic Play
promote these. Information about the Froebel Archive project,
bringing the story of Elinor Goldschmied's work alive through film.
Based on a wealth of research into how babies learn and the
principles of learning, together with the author's own personal
experience of working with the under 3s, this book will be
indispensable for anyone involved in the care and development of
children in this age group.
