Reviews / Votes
"A clear and visual book which is easy to use and relate to practice for all readers. It is appropriate for the levels it is aimed at. Each stage of development is linked to theorists and the EYFS, which will help readers become more familiar with both and to recognise how they are implemented in their setting." * Laura Widdison, Childcare Internal Verifier, Access Training (East Midlands) *More details
