Beskrivning
This book uses the concept of exploration as a way of understanding transitions in children between the ages of 5 to 18 years old. Written by an international group of scholars from Australia, Brazil, China, Denmark, Finland, Greenland, India, Norway and the UK, the chapters offer a diverse set of case studies. The topics and themes covered include transitions in outdoor playtime, the transition to daycare, compassion in kindergarten, learning with fathers, transitions of Chinese traditional culture and disability. The chapters are organised into two parts, the first part covering macro transitions and the second covering micro-genetic transitions. The contributors show how both macro and micro-genetic transitions influence children’s everyday lives, and how these different transitions open up new possibilities for play, learning and development. The contributors draw on Vygotsky’s cultural historical theory and the understanding that children’s cultural formation takes form in a dialectic relation between children’s interests and motives and the institutional settings they participate in.

Recensioner i media

This is such a rare piece of work as it studies both culture and play together and also documents in detail the act of play in different settings...This book is also inclusive and talks about the dialectical relationship between children with disabilities and their environment which is a stance apart from earlier dominant narratives in the area. This book brings together different geographies, cultures, settings and their stories in one place and is a well written piece of research. Overall, a good read and a must recommendation for anyone working in the area of play.
