A fun, dynamic form of play, drama games help children explore their imaginations and discover their own creativity. By improvising a wide variety of scenes and situations, participants learn to express themselves physically and emotionally while gaining increased awareness of the feelings and experiences of others. Drama games also offer a wealth of possibilities for all kinds of group and educational play. The games can be led by parents, teachers, camp leaders, day-care providers and other group leaders. Participants gain as much as they contribute, and the games change every time they are played. A follow-up to the popular 101 Drama Games for Children, this book contains completely different games to take children's imaginations -- and those of their leaders -- in countless new directions.

Remember the days when, with very little equipment and just a few kids, you could have an endless amount of fun playing games? Those days are back. And Physical Education for Homeschool, Classroom, and Recreation Settings: 102 Games With Variations adds a twist to those fun games: They are educational as well. The 102 games and 10 dance and gymnastics activities in this book are specifically designed for small-group settings. They’re great for • parents who homeschool or who simply want to supplement their children’s PE instruction and have fun with their kids; • physical education teachers in small-school settings or who break their class into smaller groups; and • leaders of after-school, recreation, intramural, and recess programs. While the settings may change, the results don’t: Children learn skills and healthy concepts while playing games that keep them coming back for more. Physical Education for Homeschool, Classroom, and Recreation Settings offers the following: • Games and activities that are ready-made, easy and fun to play, and grounded in research • Yearly lesson plans for grades K-5, making it easy for you to teach • Games that are grounded in American Academy of Pediatrics research on the importance of play, the Canadian Sport for Life model, physical literacy, and the Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) approach The TGfU approach helps children learn interpersonal, social reasoning, and problem-solving skills, which they can apply to multiple situations. And as they take part in the fun physical activities, kids develop fundamental abilities and learn how to develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle through regular physical activity. The book includes a game finder to help you see what skills and equipment are involved for each game. Photos, illustrations, and easy-to-use components help make the games simple to teach, and you’ll be shown how to modify each game as needed for your children and to ensure the game applies to different sports. Each game ends with questions that lead to understanding the skills and concepts applied during the game. Physical Education for Homeschool, Classroom, and Recreation Settings includes • warm-up, cool-down, and fitness games; • target, territory invasion, and net and wall games; • dribbling, striking, and fielding games; and • dance and gymnastics activities. Whether you are looking for a useful PE book for your homeschooler or looking to supplement your physical education program, recreation program, or after-school or intramural program, this book is a great find. You’ll find it comprehensive, well grounded, and filled with challenging educational games that your kids will love.

The e-book is delivered through Adobe Digital Editions® and when purchased through the Human Kinetics site, access to the content is immediately granted when your order is received. Anthony Dowson is back with More Fun and Games. The book he coauthored in 2005, Fun and Games, was a big hit with teachers, coaches, and all activity leaders who work with kids. Dowson’s new book continues the premise from the first book—that children’s physical activity games need to be fun and creative as well as developmentally sound. But Dowson doesn’t stop there. For each of the 100 new games this expert physical education teacher and coach offers, he adds a pop-out box that notes the skills and fitness components the game will help kids develop. More Fun and Games covers warm-up, cool-down, and multisport games, as well as games for the following sports: soccer, cricket, basketball, tennis, netball, rugby, volleyball, badminton, and hockey. Each game includes information on equipment required, rules, and coaching advice. The games are easy to set up, require minimal equipment, and come with suggestions for adapting the games to suit not only the size of your group but also the skill level. And you can easily find the right game for your group by using the game finder section. These entertaining games and activities maximize participation while developing key skills, such as decision making, teamwork, attacking, and defending. By developing the technical skills they need in order to succeed in sports, kids will also develop greater self-confidence and enjoy their sport participation all the more. The games are crafted to help the kids stay focused, remain active, and have fun. The result is that they develop not only their motor skills and sport-specific skills but also positive attitudes toward physical activity. They’ll have loads of fun with these games and want to come back for more, and they’ll be on their way to establishing lifelong physical activity habits through More Fun and Games.
