Eye to Eye 4

The handbook on lovingly and successfully parenting your three-to-five year old child. The handbook that didn't come with them.You can rapidly become a far more joyful parent, foster your young child's enthusiasm, cultivate a sense of cooperation, and truly connect with your child by coming Eye to Eye with them. Eye to Eye is a touching, practical, and often humorous book that centers on loving, respecting, and honoring your children. Based on Gloria Walther's over 30 years of guiding three to five-year-old children in mastering a wide range of life and social skills, Eye to Eye teaches parents how to be the happy and loving parents they truly want to be. It is centered around Gloria's numerous, highly entertaining and extremely effective teaching stories. As such, it is a both informative and empowering read. It tackles a wide variety of situations and behaviors, teaching parents and educators the importance of presenting children with choices, of following a child's lead, and of teaching children the rules of effective social interaction. It shows how to stimulate and support a child's passion, and how to use music, art, color, and sound in a child's holistic development. Parents, grandparents, teachers, and friends will learn the importance of speaking softly, honestly, and directly to children, and really listening to what a child has to say. Three to five-year-olds are capable of so much - learning, sharing, cooperating, creating, problem solving - yet adults often find themselves without the tools to know how to bring out the best in their youngest. Eye to Eye provides these tools.
