Loose Parts 4 Reviews

This book brings back memories of my own open-ended play as a child and explains how this type of play builds the skills needed for becoming successful adults. It provides a wonderful combination of practicality and theory. It could be highly useful for teachers, families and those who develop policy. -Julie Powers, professor, University of Hawaii Maui College, author of Parent Engagement in Early Learning and co-author of Nature-Based Learning for Young Children

Loose Parts 4 provides parents and families with simple, accessible, inspiring and creative inspiration to help their children experience the skills needed for success in more than just their education, but throughout their entire life. I highly recommend Loose Parts 4, and all the other Loose Parts series, for all educators to keep their practice fresh, inspired and filled with wonder for both themselves and the children. -Mary Muhs, department Chair, Early Childhood Education, Rasmussen College- Twin Cities Office and author of Family Engagement in Early Childhood Settings

Lisa and Miriam have taken mountains of research and magically condensed it and made it relevant to all who have young children. Their introductory chapter is the best summary of research for the whole child that I have come across. They put all the articles, studies, and thinking into simple and understandable language. I loved this book. -Robin Chappele Thompson, PhD, co-author of StoryMaking, and director of early learning in Manatee County school district

A book bursting with inspiration on how parents and educators supporting families can repurpose and upcycle the materials found in the home to create powerful play experiences. The authors encourage us to look for the simple and open-ended materials right inside our cupboards to create play spaces that help unleash the child's creative spirit and foster 21st century skills. -Michelle Kay Compton, MA, co-author of StoryMaking, and early specialist in the Manatee school district
