Reviews

"Don’t be surprised if the educators who wrote Bright Ideas for Young Minds also solve world peace, because they are geniuses. Filled with an incredible variety of fun and educational activities to get kids moving, thinking and learning, Bright Ideas is every parent’s rainy-day dreams come true. From Slippery Slime to Animal Yoga to Giant Ice Balls, the 70 activities in Bright Ideas come with helpful step-by-step instructions, information about child development, and advice on adapting the task to suit your child’s needs. Best of all: every activity is free or low-cost, and there’s not a single piece of technology in sight. Be still, my beating heart." - Tara Ward, The Sapling https://www.thesapling.co.nz/single-post/2017/12/05/Five-activity-books-from-Aotearoa
