“Children’s lives today are filled with television, computer games, and toys that others have designed for them. They are continually entertained and directed, rather than challenged to create and invent for themselves,” writes Deb Curtis in Really Seeing Children.
“Most children who come to our program don’t start out knowing how to use our environment or the activities and materials very well. Rather than relying on us to externally motivate them with projects and activities we have planned for them, they benefit more from our intentional guidance and instruction to see the possibilities for their independent use of the environment.”
Educators have the opportunity to slow down, observe, delight, and practice really seeing children every day. In her new book, Really Seeing Children, Deb Curtis offers a wealth of ideas to help teachers and parents see with fresh eyes.
