Routines and Transitions: A Guide for Early Childhood Professionals

By Nicole Malenfant

Book Overview

In early childhood settings, children spend much of their time handwashing, dressing, napping, and on other routines and transitions.

Turn these routine daily activities into learning experiences. By using transitions wisely, you not only help children develop skills but also run a more efficient, calm program environment. In addition to discussions on developmental issues, environments, educational values, and hygiene, this book includes examples of games and rhymes that help children accomplish daily transitions with ease.

Not just another activity book, Routines and Transitions is the most comprehensive review of current theory and practice in this area; an excellent introduction and training manual for new child care staff; and an in-depth refresher course with new insights for experienced caregivers.
