Dear Parent,
It feels so good to see your
child achieve milestones,
absorb knowledge like a
sponge and develop a true
love of learning.
"Storybooks That Teach
and
Educational Child's Play"
can
awaken these senses in your
child, bring their brains to
attention, get their brain
synapses connecting at
speeds so impressive even
the energizer bunny would
drop his drum.
It is this very hunger to
learn that needs to be
nurtured. You don't want to
miss your window of
opportunity--the years prior
to age 7. Absolutely,
hands-down the MOST
IMPORTANT and VITAL learning
and child development stages of
their growth.
I'm a childhood education
specialist with years of
education, experience and
training; but I'm also a
parent. I know how it feels
to want a manual to navigate
your child's latest crisis.
I know how it feels to
invest yourself in your
child, feel every
accomplishment and every
failure. I want to share my
experience and knowledge
with you and your
child through this
website; and my
child development books.
"Storybooks That Teach
and
Educational Child's Play"
can do so
much more to help your
preschool child maximize
their potential and child
development.
I am not
talking about hot housing,
or creating little geniuses,
just common sense activities
to help stimulate those
areas of a child's brain
that science is saying need
stimulating before the age
of seven.
Imagine you:
Feeling like you are a great
parent
Knowing you did a good as,
and even better job than
your parents
Not feeling guilty that you
have "messed them up"
Teaching your child how to
learn; developing their
potential and nurturing
their creativity
Feeling worthy to be the
parent of such a wonderful
child
Getting hugged by a child
who adores you
Being the envy of your
friends, who wonder what you
are doing to have such a
well
developed child
Knowing you have given your
child the best start in life
they could have
Imagine your child:
Feeling good about
themselves
(self-esteem)
Thinking and solving
problems for
themselves (thinking
ability)
Telling you and
others how they feel
and what they are
thinking
(communication)
Sharing and playing
with other children
(socialization
skills)
Having good body
balance and
coordination
(physical
coordination)
Being able to deal
with and recognize
their own emotions
(emotional
stability)
Remaining calm and
relaxed and able to
reduce behaviors
(self control)
Being able to read
and be academic
achievers
(successful for a
lifetime)
Let me tell you a little
about myself.............
Storybooks That Teach-child
development, it's
this easy
Hi
there, my name is Paul
Mackie, I live in Calgary,
Canada
with my wife
and children. I am a
professional Early Childhood
Educator and a Wholistic
Therapist, presently working
with
adults with
challenges and disabilities.
Let
me be blunt here..............THIS
IS SERIOUS,
"I know what I
am talking about". I've spent many
YEARS of my life dealing
with kids in daycares,
pre-school, Elementary and
Junior High
school.
I know what they need, and
most
importantly.................
I know
WHEN they need it!.
As a parent I have been through the
parenting mill (so to speak), and
totally understand what
you are going through to raise a
child and help with child development;
if nothing else, please

A Case Study
Using an
Educational
Child's Play
Activity
Several years ago I was
hired by a daycare to work
with a three year old boy
who had severe behavioral
problems. As an Early
Childhood Educator who had
lots of experience in child
development and had some experience working
with behaviorally challenged
children I thought, “How bad
could it be?” after all, he
was only three years old.
Tommy (not his real name)
knew a lot of words; he
favored “f_ _ _ you!”
followed by a string of two
to three word sentences of
the same language and ran
around threatening the other
kids with a wooden 2X4 12
inch long block.
At first I tried the usual
methods of child development
such as behavioral
management, time-out,
transitional methods
(timers, communication of
changes in activities etc),
rewards and praise for good
behavior, but all to no
avail. It was at this point
that I decided to use a new
approach called a Balance
Board.
The play-based, child
development Balance Board
activity included spinning
on a rotational Balance
Board and throwing some bean
bags at a target while
standing on a pivot Balance
Board.
Tommy started using the
board. The first thing I
noticed was that Tommy did
not get dizzy; he would spin
for five minutes, get up off
the board and walk away (I
later found out this could
be a possible indicator that
a person may have sensory
difficulties). Another thing
was his awareness of where
he was in space; he would
run his hand along the wall
all the time (another
possible indicator of
sensory difficulties) and
would slide on his back on
the floor, bumping his head
quite hard on walls, doors
and furniture.
Tommy’s behaviors had
decreased a little and he
was swearing less, but after
two months, I began to doubt
whether the balance board
activities were having much
effect on his child
development. It was at this point
that an amazing thing
happened. One day after our
usual five minutes of
spinning Tommy stood up and
said, “I feel dizzy.”
Something had changed, which
was not amazing in itself;
the truly amazing thing
happened the next day.
The next day I was watching
as a boy took Tommy’s train
set. I quickly stepped in to
prevent Tommy from snatching
back the train and hitting
the boy as he typically
would. To my surprise, Tommy
came over to me and said,
”He has taken my train!” I
asked Tommy, “What should we
do about that?” Tommy
replied, “He took my train
set. Let’s go and ask for it
back!” (twelve words, in
sentences - truly amazing
for this little boy). I
helped Tommy get the train
back by using his words.
From that point on, Tommy’s
use of vocabulary increased
dramatically. He could
communicate his needs and
feelings and his violent
outbursts decreased. Tommy
still had behaviors, but
his child development
was more at the level of a
developing three year old.
Another interesting thing
was that Tommy stopped
running his hands on the
walls, although he would
still slide on the floor. He
would however slow down and
gently touch his head to
objects instead of hitting
them hard.
So there you have it. I
believe laughter, compassion
and sensory play are the
best ways to help with child
development. It is not about
good or bad; it is not about
fixing behaviors; it is not
about finding solutions or
diagnoses; it is about
consistently providing the
Sensory Rich Environment;
the Balance Board can be
part of that child
development environment.
What parents are
saying about these storybooks:
I just finished 'A Walk in the Jungle' with my two girls.
I'm VERY impressed!
My eldest is starting kindergarten this year and she loves following
guided activities. She was eager to follow along and create her own
animal moves.
What I'm also happy with is that my younger daughter who just turned
two actually participated. She is naturally very much of a loner.
While she normally does her own thing while other kids play she
joined us after the second activity and 'opted out' near the end.
However, that was very impressive for her.
Thanks so much. It's a great tool for parents who want to have fun
with their kids, but don't have the imagination or information to
make learning fun.
