Growing An In-Sync Child; av Carol Kranowitz och Joye Newman (adopterad)

My son has trouble with coordination, but the simple bilateral movement activities in this book have made a noticeable difference in just a few weeks. The description of each game is clear enough that we can start playing right away without complicated setup.

The animal walk games got my 4-year-old hopping like a frog for twenty minutes straight, which never happens. As a parent I appreciated that each activity lists what skills it's building, so I actually understand why we're doing them.

We've been using the balance and coordination games from this book with our kindergartener, and the progress in just a few weeks has been noticeable. The activities need almost no special equipment, which made it easy to start the same day it arrived.
