Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern day youth sports environment has taken the enjoyment out of athletics for our children. Currently, 70% of kids drop out of organized sports by the age of 13, which has given rise to a generation of overweight, unhealthy young adults. There is a solution. John O’Sullivan shares the secrets of the coaches and parents who have not only raised elite athletes, but have done so by creating an environment that promotes positive core values and teaches life lessons instead of focusing on wins and losses, scholarships, and professional aspirations. Changing the Game gives adults a new paradigm and a game plan for raising happy, high performing children, and provides a national call to action to return youth sports to our kids.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wonderful edition to a foundations course; much needed focus on the natural way children learn through play!" —Diane Lang, Manhattanville College "This is the most clearly self aware of the several current works in the psychology of children′s play. It has the unique worth of being unusually comprehensive with respect to play stages, gender differences, private lives, neighborhoods, humor, collections, video games, responses to stress and the uses of recess and play therapy. I particularly liked the demonstration of the continuing role of make believe from early childhood on into the theatric, literary, and electronic foci of adolescence. These four authors are to be congratulated for having brought us as students and as parents an unusually readable text." -Brian Sutton-Smith, Prof. Emeritus, University of Pennsylvania "The authors′ treatment of play is both original and provocative. Unlike most previous expositions on play, they consider not only the social and cognitive dimensions of play but also its aesthetic nature. The treatment of youth sport was especially impressive. This is a ′must read′ for students of play." -Anthony D. Pellegrini, University of Minnesota, Twin Cities "Children′s Play combines uncompromising scholarship with fresh, joyful prose. By looking at both the structure and content of play the authors help us understand the developmental significance of this complex way of being in the world. Each chapter contains exactly the topics we want to study and adds surprises that counter the folk-psychology of today. Children′s Play does more than overview the research literature; it engenders new thinking." -George E. Forman, Ph.D., University of Massachusetts, Amherst Play is a fundamental value for children-it is complex, beautiful, and important for children′s development. Play is about having fun, being outdoors, being with friends, choosing freely, pretending, enacting fantasy, and playing games. It is about enjoying the moment, and consequently, not about planning for or worrying about the future. Play is a surprisingly complex and significant phenomenon in the lives of children everywhere. Children′s Play looks at the many facets of play and how it develops from infancy through late childhood. Authors W. George Scarlett, Sophie Naudeau, Dorothy Salonius-Pasternak, and Iris Ponte take a broad approach to examining how children play by including a wide variety of types of play, play settings, and play media. The book also discusses major revolutions in the way today′s children play, including changes in organized youth sports, children′s humor, and electronic play. Children′s Play addresses diversity throughout the text and explores play on the topics of gender, disabilities, socioeconomic class, and culture. Key Features Examines how play is used for purposes other than leisure, including academic learning and reducing stress in environments such as hospitals and refugee camps Integrates culture throughout to give readers a true understanding of how culture shapes children′s play Provides rich illustration of figures and photos to portray children in various play settings Includes pedagogical aids such as chapter-opening outlines, boxed material to highlight key points, real-life examples, and a summary section with key words, names, and ideas for working with children Children′s Play is an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate courses on child behavior in the areas of Psychology, Human Development and Family Studies, Education, Early Childhood Education, and Educational Psychology. It is also a useful resource for professionals already working with children including preschool, elementary, and junior high school teachers, daycare workers, and related fields. is an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate courses on child behavior in the areas of Psychology, Human Development and Family Studies, Education, Early Childhood Education, and Educational Psychology.
