Underpinned by substantive research on meeting the developmental and attachment needs of infants, this book offers constructive advice on how to encourage curiosity, confidence and emotional security in young children. Based on a philosophy of respect and sensitive observation of infants, it is appropriate for use in Sure Start programmes. The contributors offer a model that supports children's development and well being without relying on expensive material resources, and enables a coherent care strategy to be applied across different services. They explain the main elements of the RIE approach clearly and concisely and fully explore the practicalities of its implementation in a range of settings, including state-run and independent day care and residential centres, private households and family-based day care. The fresh and effective approach to caring for infants and toddlers outlined in this book will be welcomed by parents and day care professionals, as well as those who manage and evaluate child care provision.

Ask dog owners anywhere, and they'll tell you their least favorite part of the day is leaving their best friend behind when they leave the house. It's safe to say they don't enjoy coming home to chewed up sofas, shoes, and garbage as well. Now, dog owners can turn their bored dog into an active dog with "150 Activities for Bored Dogs". A great mix of activities for the latch-key dog as well as activities that allow the reader to get in on the fun, "150 Activities for Bored Dogs" includes chapters on Fun Fur One, Fun Fur Two, and Fun Fur the Whole Doggone Pack. "Fetch" will seem like puppy play when readers discover activities like: Hide the Treats; Rexercise; and, Tetherball Tug. The busy dog owner can finally leave guilt behind, thanks to "150 Activities for Bored Dogs".
