The Foundation Blocks series makes it easy to implement the Department of Education's new, revised Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage (September 2012). The books are clearly laid out, with one activity per page, attractive illustrations and cross references to popular early years topics. Written by experienced early years practitioners, these books will be an invaluable resource for anyone working with 3-5 year olds. This book contains activities for the prime area of Physical Development and the specific area of Expressive Arts and Design. They will encourage children to be active; to move with confidence, control and coordination; to understand the importance of physical activity; to make healthy lifestyle and food choices; and to learn to care for their own basic hygiene and personal needs. They offer opportunities for children to explore a range of media and materials; to use their imaginations in design and technology; and to share thoughts, ideas and feelings through dance, movement, art, music and role-play.
