The demands of modern society mean that grandparents are increasingly involved in raising their grandchildren. This guide is written specifically for grandparents, and aims to help you raise well-rounded, ready-to-learn, emotionally resilient grandchildren, even if you only look after them for a few hours a week. Combining the authors' practical experience as childhood development professionals with the latest international research into the brain, this book helps you to understand the key influences on healthy development in the first 5 years: movement, music, sleep and food. It then gives practical advice on how to integrate these 'super brain foods' into your grandchild's life. The benefits include improving the ability to think creatively, building speech and language skills, promoting social skills, and driving curiosity. Learn to build a loving, supportive relationship that helps grandchildren feel positive about their future, while constructing essential life skills that ensure they are well-rounded, happy and capable, confident learners.
