Abstract	Now in a second edition, this popular resource shows teachers and childcare providers how to work with young children based on current neuroscience research. Revised and expanded, it contains a wealth of practical and specific activities and materials to use with infants and toddlers to enhance growth and development. For each activity presented, the text examines its relation to the rapid brain growth that characterizes the 0 to 3 years, including major developments in sensory reception, movement, language, cognition, memory, vision, and motivation. Featured materials, with guidance for their use and where to find them, include paint, mark-makers, man-made found objects, natural objects, clay, paper, and light and shadow. This edition features many full color images and two new chapters on using electronic technology with infants and toddlers written by outstanding early educators. This is an essential guide for trainers and professionals who work with very young children, as well as parents and other caregivers. This book features: (1) The interpretation of current neuroscience as a supplement to the wisdom of excellent early childhood educators; (2) Numerous vignettes of teachers at work with young children inspired by the experiences of lifelong early educator Ann Lewin-Benham; (3) New ideas regarding the responsible introduction of electronic technology to young children; (4) Original color photos of children learning with traditional materials such as paint, clay, and fabric, as well as with electronic devices such as cameras and computers; and (5) Insights and practices of renowned cognitive psychologists, including Stanislas Dehaene.
