Puppets, dolls to inhance fantasy and creative play This book should probably be called “Toymaking for Children,” because there isn’t a ton of stuff you can do with a kid. Not that that has anything to do with anything, just a minor point which occurred to me. But it was still a really nifty book. It’s absolutely in the extreme Waldorf, believing firmly that kids need next to no toys except what you can fashion out of twigs, leaves and berries. With the occasional yarn and handkerchief thrown in. See my entire review: http://sanctimommy.wordpress.com/2009/07/15/toymaking-with-children/ no reviews | add a review
The toys surrounding a child during the first five years are of great importance -- they awaken the imagination and stimulate creativity. Out of her long experience as a kindergarten teacher, Freya Jaffke has numerous suggestions and plans for making imaginative and high-quality toys, including wooden boats, log trains, doll's furniture, rag dolls, puppets, and soft animals.
