Reviews

Praise for Preschool Health and Safety Matters:

"After many years in the preschool classroom, this book has put together so many of the things that I have learned bit by bit."

"This manual would make an excellent text for an early childhood class or for the required training for ECE teachers. It simply and plainly addresses the issues that come up daily in a classroom. I also like how it takes the ideas and concepts one step further and includes the parents."

"This book would be great for someone who is opening a home or child care center!"
