Order Rae Pica’s new book Why Play? by [DATE TK] and receive these special bonuses!

For a limited time, you can order Rae’s just-published book, Why Play?, and receive a 20% discount PLUS an invitation to a previously recorded private web event with Sally Haughey—and you can keep the recording for life!

 

About the Book

In an age when play is often seen as frivolous or unproductive, early childhood consultant and internationally known speaker Rae Pica is out to advocate for the importance of play in early childhood education. Use her new book Why Play? as a resource for advocacy or as a guide on how to use play (pre-K–3). Each chapter focuses on a specific type of play, includes suggestions for putting theory into practice, and offers recommendations for how to help parents understand that play is not separate from learning.

The recording of this private web event is not public, and is available only to those who order Rae’s book.
