|  | Nutrition Activities for Preschoolers by A. Ray, Debby Cryer, Thelma Harms Just like the rest of us, preschoolers are naturally interested in the food they eat. Nutrition Activities for Preschoolers takes advantage of this interest to provide an ongoing, everyday emphasis on good health and nutrition throughout the early childhood curriculum. The enjoyable activities in this book are related to the typical preschool classroom learning centers - blocks, books, pretend play, science and math, art, music, and so on - as well as meal and snack times. Teachers will find plenty of support in the appendixlists of related books and cookbooks, patterns, games to play, and newsletters to parents. A special feature of this book is a training manual for teachers, which outlines a staff workshop for using the book to create awareness of good health habits. AUTHOR: A.

 | Just Dads by Bonnie Louise Kuchler While mothers' devotion might get more attention, many fathers also do their fair share of raising young. Just Dads is a unique giftbook that combines engaging and interesting male animal parenting photographs with insightful fatherhood quotations. Along with the quotations are intriguing facts about the paternal care many species provide, including the emperor penguin father who carries the egg on his feet for three months without eating, the male marine catfish that opens his mouth when danger threatens so the youngsters can dash in to safety, and the male titis monkeys that babysit the young in the forest canopy, freeing up the females to travel ahead and eat their fill. The delightful images combined with the insightful quotations bring an engaging new perspective to the role of fatherhood, both animal and humankind.
