Parents are the first, and most important teachers of their children, not only directly teaching, but choosing products for their children. For preschoolers, the distinction between education and entertainment is subtle. Children of this age group are learning constantly, and the more enjoyment they get from what they watch, read, listen to, or interact with, the more they will take in, and learn. This site looks at a range of resources and media aimed at that critical age before school is started, and assesses the educational and entertainment value of these products. There are also profiles of the artists, writers, and performers involved, interviews, and lots of links to help parents become more informed consumers, choosing the most appropriate products to help give their preschooler a terrific learning head-start.

  Yes, there’s magic, but aside from a little mild-mannered tantruming, there’s nothing black about this film. There’s plenty of humour, and the overall theme is a positive one about being true to yourself, and giving into the magic of the inner child. Children will relate to the wise young character of Eric, who also has a few relationship difficulties of his own.

  Throughout the CD are lots of special effects, all created by the use of voice and musical instrument, without a canned sound or synthesiser to be seen. It’s the overall musicality that makes this CD such a delight. Violins meld with voices to create oceanic sounds, bluegrass banjos twang, voices work in harmony, drums and mandolins give way to Beatles style guitars, accordions trace the flight of a butterfly, and chimes ring through a space ride.A review of Dragon Mode by Sally OdgersPosted by: PEAdmin on Monday, March 24, 2008 - 05:41 PM

  The book ends on a positive note which will appeal to parents who don’t want to stifle their child’s inner dragon, but who also know that the dinner table is no place for dragon antics. |
