520 _aThe author of this book started by taking pictures, lots of them. He visited home-based preschools with a strong nature-play program and photographed the kids at play, showing the ways they used trees, rocks, sand, leaves, flowers, and other elements of the landscape. He spoke with the director of each school about how their play yard design provided opportunities for learning. The result is a book that shows us how to create the conditions for real-life outdoor learning in preschools and home gardens. (Miller Library Staff)
520 _aRecent research has drawn the link between children's brain development and time spent in the natural environment. In Seasons of Play, Rusty Keeler takes readers on a photographic journey through real child care centers that have embraced his philosophy that natural play space create new opportunities for children to learn and develop. By saying "no" to cookie-cutter care environments, caregivers say "yes" to children's natural tendencies to explore and adapt their play space to suit their imaginations. Looking into natural play environments at actual child care centers, readers will be inspired to create their own outdoor play areas, regardless of location, Keeler's own drawings help readers see just how doable an interactive and engaging natural play space can be - and it can change with the seasons!
