Through compelling examples, Brian Edmiston presents the case for
why and how adults should play with young children to create with
them a 'workshop for life'. In a chapter on 'mythic play' Edmiston
confronts adult discomfort over children's play with pretend
weapons, as he encourages adults both to support children's desires
to experience in imagination the limits of life and death, and to
travel with children on their transformational journeys into
unknown territory. This book provides researchers and students with
a sound theoretical framework for re-conceptualising significant
aspects of pretend play in early childhood. Its many practical
illustrations make this a compelling and provocative read for any
student taking courses in Early Childhood Studies.
