From podcasts and social media to presentations and workshops, coauthors Jeff A. Johnson and Denita Dinger are active, committed participants in everything they do. They’re terrific self-promoters, and they will work hard to drum up support and excitement for this new book. Jeff and Denita’s fans are enthusiastic, and previous titles by the duo have sold very well.
This is the latest installment in the Johnson/Dinger (un)curriculum library. Let Them Play: An Early Learning (Un)Curriculum (978-1-60554-053-5) focused on the authors’ (un)curriculum theory—young children learn best when they’re allowed and encouraged to lead their own play. Building on those early learning principles, their next book, Let’s Play: (Un)Curriculum Early Learning Adventures, (978-1-60554-127-3) provided child-led, open-ended play adventures that support a transition to play-based, child-led (un)curriculum. Let’s All Play embodies the authors’ theory of (un)curriculum, and the adventures that comprise the book emphasize and facilitate the important social learning children derive through open-ended group play.
40 all-new adventures—for both children and adults—with many variations and extensions are featured. Learning adventures focus on opportunities for social play experiences for children ages 2 to 6, and “thought adventures” for caregivers, educators, parents offer something for adults to learn from.
