For future ideas for preschool
Didn't read it cover-to-cover, juust went through and read the chapters that jumped out at me. Lots of good ideas, but I'd love to meet the people who have enought free time to commit to all of this. Enjoyable and inspiring or guilt inducing, depending on the week you're having.

Skimmed. Not much for how to books... Unless maybe it was the basis for a discussion.
