Overview
Reviews
Popular literature suggests that boys in general prefer more activity (especially outdoors), can be more competitive than girls with a keen sense of fairness and hierarchy and have a more single minded approach to projects. This exciting new book in the series considers the significant role that the physical environment can play in supporting boys' speaking and listening skills - in supporting inquisitive, verbal experimentation, not just answering questions!

Press Reviews
"'useful, succinct and accessible...there are 12 ideas to try, each photo illustrated in such an empowering way and with such helpful commentary alongside, that readers cannot help but think "I can do that" or "I'd love to give that a go".'"
Early Years Educator (April 2011)
"'This small book is packed full of colour photographs illustrating real-life examples of how to support language development.'"
Nursery World (March 2011)
