TITLE: Cooperative Games and Sports Book: Joyful Activities for Everyone
DESCRIPTION: Children live what they learn through games and play. Through Cooperative Games and Sports, you can teach children how to play with - rather than against - each other, using 153 field-tested games and activities that are designed to build a child's self-worth through cooperation, acceptance, inclusion, and fun
The premise of cooperative games is that everybody wins and everybody has fun. With activities like cooperative musical chairs, partner gymnastics, and math and spelling games, children learn valuable concepts, plus you aren't left scrambling for expensive equipment in the process. These versatile games allow you to adapt the rules, equipment, and number of players to your own participants' capabilities and to different physical settings. You'll also find a chapter dedicated to teaching you how to create your own games. Cooperative Games and Sports shifts the focus from the outcome of a game to the experience of playing it. With instructive photos and straightforward terminology, it is your guide to building positive interactions that teach children - and adults - the value of playing simply for the sake of playing.
