Description: "Building Brains expands young children's learning with six hundred brain-based, developmentally appropriate activity ideas. It combines the latest information on brain development with activities that support children's learning and enrich any early childhood curriculum. Rather than step-by-step activities, Building Brains is filled with open-ended ideas that early child professionals can execute in a variety of ways, depending on children's needs and interests. Ideas are organized by age-from age zero to five-and learning domains"--

"This book lists activities without all the "ingredients" needed to execute them in the home or classroom. The easy to use activity lists allow adults to choose an idea or a group of related activities to enhance their existing curriculum"--
