The authors share the view that physical development, growth and learning are of fundamental importance in all our lives, but particularly so for the growing child.

Physical Education offers a unique opportunity to encourage all areas of development.

The book emphasises the need for stimulating, engaging and developmentally appropriate movement experiences from birth onwards and offers concrete guidance for parents, teachers and childcare workers in both indoor and outdoor settings.

Each chapter is a manifesto for children learning through movement.

Drawing upon recognized good practice and research, this book offers a realistic, informed and original model of movement education for all young children.
