Young children are losing out on play time at home and school as parents and teachers make them devote increasing effort to developing academic skills like reading and mathematics. Excising play from the lives of children is not the answer, as research has demonstrated the clear value of both free play and guided, playful learning for achieving optimal academic and social outcomes. This book provides a counterargument to the rising tide of didactic instruction in preschool classrooms around the world.
