Keeping kids clean can be a struggle. With COVID-19, habits like handwashing are even more important. But is dirt always bad? Clean and Dirty celebrates both good hygiene and messy play. We have an in-built curiosity to touch, feel and taste, to experience the world with all our senses. Getting sand between the toes or a little mud on the clothes are all part of the fun! At the same time, we need to keep ourselves healthy. Many animals have developed unique techniques to get rid of dirt and keep parasites at bay. This rhyming story, in the voice of a young child, explores these essential survival skills in nature. In some cases, such as mud rolling or dust-bathing, one animal's ingenious method of keeping clean may look like getting dirty for another! The book ends with some easy ideas for messy play and clean fun to try at home.
We use the same measures of speed and time, but our perception of time is very personal. Minutes drag when we're bored, but hours fly by when we're having fun. Sometimes we want to do things fast, other times we feel like taking things slow. This rhyming story, in the voice of a young child, explores how our pace shapes our experience of the world. In Fast and Slow, we meet speedy and sedate animals from all over the world, discovering how they move through time and space in their unique ways. Likewise, we can each find our own tempo while finding joy in the present. The book ends with some easy games and activities that encourage either speed or stillness.
It's not easy being separated from your friends. Like most animals, we are social creatures. Near and Far takes a kid's view of how different animals socialise and communicate. Nature is full of clever ways to maintain closeness without physical contact. A fun and entertaining book to inspire us to have fun, be creative, and share experiences - even if we can't be in the same place together.
