Movement and Dance in Early Childhood

British educational consultant Davies examines the multifaceted role that movement plays in the lives of young children. The second edition incorporates new information from research findings since publication of the first edition seven years ago, and now includes two chapters on dance, one suggesting strategies for working with young children and the other addressing the expressive and artistic aspects of children's movement. In addition, Davies extends the trans-global perspective through references to children beyond the UK, in Finland, France, Germany, Puerto Rico, and Taiwan. For early childhood educators and parents.
