Fresh Air for Parent Meetings Too

Our parenting team relies on this resource for fresh and effective activities to keep our parents engaged in nighttime and weekend sessions. It was recommended by our other professional staff, we'd borrowed it long enough, and we had to have our own copy!

All That You Need

Nancy Alexander's book takes you through every possible aspect and pitfall for putting together an early childhood training. That's the meat of it: I urge you please to get this book right now if you give technical assistance within any early child development setting. It's superb.

This was practical and helpful

I pulled so many ideas I could use out of this one! General books on training often aren't that applicable on my topics, but this was fabulous. It has a ton of activities that very directly apply to the content of early childhood education workshops. It wasn't gimmicky or forced or childish, but applicable and professional. This was a gold mine for me.

Excellent!

Though I have been training for many years, this book provided new ideas, and in an excellent format. From Ice Breakers, to activities, I have been able to enhance my CDA classes more than I expected! Thanks to Nancy for providing a must needed book for our field!

A Must for Trainers

This book was chock full of ideas that work for different kinds of training environments. The style was easy to read. The directions for setting up any game or project were clear and easy to follow. Ms. Alexander included variations on many of the projects which made the activity easy to adapt to different situations. This one goes on the main bookshelf as one of my training staples.
