As hard as it may be for some adults to believe, millions of little girls are now growing up without even knowing how to play hopscotch, & millions of little boys haven't the slightest idea how to shoot marbles.

And fewer & fewer parents have time or patience for that most important bond between parent & child -- play. In this book, Heidi Hartwiger seeks not only to preserve traditional games once known to all, she also encourages parents to celebrate the joys of playing with their children & offers suggestions & directions for scores of fun things that grownups & children can do together. A book to be treasured by parents, grandparents & caregivers of children.Hartwiger, Heidi is the author of 'All Join Hands The Forgotten Art of Playing With Children' with ISBN 9781878086327 and ISBN 1878086324.
