“Child educator Goble, winner of ZERO TO THREE’s Leader for the 21st Century Fellowship, brings her expertise to this text with 160 developmentally appropriate social activities for infants and toddlers . . . Practical and new activities for parents and child-care workers hoping to provide a strong education to the babies and toddlers in their charge.”—Library Journal

“This is a great resource for Infant and Toddler caregivers to help them understand, plan, and implement high-quality interactions and experiences so that all children reach their maximum potential at each stage of development.”—Caren Calhoun, Med, Tulsa Educare, Executive Director

“This is not just an activity book, although the simple, engaging activities are perfectly suited to the needs and interests of your babies and toddlers. Creating even more value, Carla Goble applies her expertise as an infant teacher and researcher to suggest age-appropriate, playful, interactive learning opportunities organized around simple themes that will promote holistic development.”—Marilou Hyson, PhD, early childhood consultant and adjunct professor, University of Massachusetts–Boston

“Finally, a book that addresses the often overlooked curriculum of infant-toddler social studies. It’s more important than ever to begin intentionally interacting with children from the earliest age to encourage compassion, awareness, and a positive sense of self. Teacher preparation programs, early care providers, and parents will find this book easy to navigate and implement.”—Debbie Deibert, MS Early Childhood Education, associate professor, School of Child Development and Education
