Treasure Basket Explorations: Heuristic Learning for Infants and Toddlers Paperback - 2017

by Laura Wilhelm


From the rear cover

There's no need for flashy toys and talking dolls. Babies and toddlers learn by doing. They explore like little scientists, testing and trying everything they encounter. Nurture these natural tendencies by creating treasure baskets!

Encourage them to discover the sounds that a metal cup makes when banged on the floor. Invite them to feel the velvety texture of soft fabric or the bumpiness of a loofah sponge. Let them explore what a wooden ring and a cotton handkerchief can do together.

Heuristic learning is simply discovery, and it offers adults the opportunity to see children's thinking. For example, a baby grasps a metal cup and accidently knocks it against a table leg. The cup makes an interesting noise. The child stares at the cup for a moment then hits it on the floor. Another noise! The baby will continue, fascinated, exploring all the great noises the metal cup can make. Through his explorations, the child is answering some fundamental questions: What is this and what can I do with it? Later, he will add to his knowledge: What else can this do and what can this become? This is cognitive development in action!
