Play, be surprised, recognize, Singer E., Haan D.

The manual “play, be surprised, to recognize. The theory of development, education and training of children ”, which has published within the framework of the educational-methodical kit for the program“ From Birth to School ”and the corresponding Federal State Educational Standard, is devoted to the development of children in a preschool institution. It will not only be interesting to professionals, but also useful to a wide range of readers, since it raises both theoretical and practical issues relating to the strategy and practice of interaction between teachers, parents and children.

Over the past fifty years, large changes have occurred in the field of young children. Mothers work outside the home, and their children visit short -term stay groups or kindergartens in which certain educational programs are being implemented. In this regard, modern children have much fewer opportunities to play freely on the street with neighboring children.

Today, family education and education in children's centers and school are different from those that were in the past. That is why it is required to rethink the basic views on the development, education and education of children.

This book is the result of such a rethinking. It was based on the experience of cooperation with practitioners and colleagues-scientists, materials of foreign pedagogical literature and a generalization of the results of empirical studies of authors over the past 40 years.
