Offering an in-depth exploration of the distinctive features of the play development and learning of toddlers, this book provides useful materials, strategies and tools that can be used by practitioners supporting toddlers at this significant age.

The book explores the context and concepts of wellbeing and is ideal for early years practitioners, teachers and students working with toddlers. It sets out practical guidance on the following key factors: home, family, health, development and learning, voice and expressions, early language, meal times and early years settings. These factors are supported with case studies and examples of good practice from Norway, Spain and the UK and expanded upon with reflective thinking exercises and suggested strategies to implement.

Reviews for Supporting Toddlers' Wellbeing in Early Years Settings: Strategies and Tools for Practitioners and Teachers

Full of little gems, this book is an important compilation of transnational practice based on the collective perspectives of practitioners, local community leaders and academics on the field of toddlers' health and well-being. Pertinent current issues around disadvantage are confronted and reflective practical activities are proposed in a constant effort to meet universal needs and improve toddlers' lives. -- Dr Paty Paliokosta, Senior Lecturer in Inclusive Education, Kingston University, London A fantastic read! An in-depth insight into what really attributes to the wellbeing of toddlers. It is powerful how each chapter with the 4 pedagogical characteristics offers information on legislation, proven research and an opportunity to reflect on your own setting using direct focus points offering further reading. It highlights areas to consider, comparisons are relevant and thought provoking and it enables the reader to test their own knowledge and settings paradigms. As a very experienced leader I still found this book refreshingly unique and a powerful tool. -- Hazel Moody, Director, Advantage Day Nursery
