Plus It! How to Easily Turn Everyday Activities into Learning Adventures for Kids makes a great stocking stuffer or holiday gift for parents, teachers, grandparents, babysitters and other childcare providers. This pocket-sized book is perfect for a purse or glove compartment and provides usable tips on how to extend children's learning in day-to-day activities.
Author Esther Jantzen, an educator and family literacy advocate, wrote the book based on the premise that parents have an incredible opportunity to further their child's development and education in day-to-day activities and routines.
This is not a book that promotes worksheets, complicated educational programs or drill-and-kill "games" that will burn out both kids and parents. Plus It! focuses on free, fun and simple ways to add learning and interest to any situation. Jantzen includes activity suggestions for travel, everyday routines and chores, walks, car rides, conversations and even bad moods.
