Description

Tells parents how children's everyday play and experiences can help them learn more geography -- the study of the Earth and its human, animals, and plant population. The suggestions are geared to children from 2-5 years of age. The activities and games are organized around 5 specific themes developed by professional geographers and used in many schools: 1) where are things located?; 2) what characteristics make a place special?; 3) what are the relationships among people and places?; 4) what are the patterns of movement of people, products, and information?; and 5) how can the Earth be divided into regions for study? Glossary. List of resources. Illustrated.
