I received it for free through Goodreads First Reads That's an amazing guide to make your kids move and be happy. I've always thought that kids nowadays need to play outdoors and not to be in front of the TV or maybe with a phone or a facebook profile. I want my kids to learn the importance of being active and this book is a funny idea to suggest new games to them. Maybe one day they get bored out of their mind and they want to play but they don't know what to do. They just have to open a page at random and do it! After a few times that they do so, finding a game for the day will become a game itself!! It will also be in handy to organize birthday parties! I love it! It has a big variety of outdoor and indoor activities, water games, creative movement and holiday activities. in the first chapter it also explains all the benefits of physical activities for toddlers and preschoolers and more.
