All About Us

All About Us: Activities for 3-5 Year Olds contains enjoyable play activities designed to develop important preschool skills and positive relationships and are linked to the Early Learning Goals of the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage, revised by the Department of Education for September 2012. All About Us looks at the child in his or her environment and explores the child's world. The practical activities include ideas for helping children to describe themselves and others, to explore and express their feelings in a variety of ways and to develop sensitivity to others' needs and feelings. The activities will encourage children to develop consciousness of their own personal attitudes and feelings, and lead to an understanding of the relationship between the child, the people he or she lives with and the immediate community. The practical activities include: describing what we are like; recording voices; caring for someone else; keeping safe; working in a team; and being aware of other people. All the books in the Activities for 3-5 Year Olds Series contain tried-and-tested activities, linked to the Early Learning Goals of the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage, revised by the Department of Education for September 2012. They are an invaluable resource of fun, easy-to-use ideas for all early years settings, from preschools and nurseries to reception classes and day nurseries.
