Making It Up: A Revolutionary Way to Bond with Kids Through Play - Paperback
by Christopher Mannino (Author), Cory Reid (Illustrator)
"Yes, and . . ." Explore how the principles of theatre and improv can help parents engage in imaginative play with their children with actor and theater teacher Christopher Mannino.
Just ask a certain animated blue dog we all love: Play-centered parenting is what every young child wants and needs, yet it's hard to manage in today's busy, hectic world.
How can real-life parents with real responsibilities and stresses drop everything to be silly with their kids? You don't need to be a trained actor to engage in your child's imaginative world. It's easier than it sounds, and far more powerful than you can imagine.
With the techniques found in Making It Up, accompanied by playful illustrations from Cory Reid, you'll have more energy, more confidence, and a stronger relationship with your kids in just ten minutes a day. And you might just find yourself having fun!
