Look At It This Way

Health professionals, teachers, parents and carers are desperate for play ideas to keep their child entertained and hopefully improve the childs quality of life. The book incorporates many toys which will improve basic skills and are fun for any child, disabled or not. Other toys included are suitable for group play with family and friends. They are labelled as instant (self explanatory), quick (made in an evening) or long-lasting (made in a weekend or longer). These require basic needlework and carpentry skills using materials ranging from common objects around the house or garden to easily available fabrics and wood.

The books will be invaluable to everyone working with children with special needs - parents, therapists, toy librarians, teachers, health visitors, playgroup leaders, child minders and all who play with children in hospitals, hostels or at home.
