New Resource on Early Childhood Environments Are Available

Vicki Stoecklin met with colleagues Toni and Robin Christie from New Zealand at the World Forum on Nature Education this past July. They were kind enough to share their new book "Childspaces 2: Another Design Sourcebook for Early Childhood Environments." Insert Scaled ChildSpaces 2.jpg

The book offers beautiful photographs and construction details for many delightful projects to create a more functional and aesthetically pleasing environment for young children. My two favorites are the outdoor nappy changing tables and the stained wood lights. The book can be found at Childspace, www.childspace.co.nz. (www.childspace.co.nz./ )
