Simons, Bette
This booklet is a compilation of articles from a column in the "Warner Center News" written by an experienced early childhood educator on various topics related to child care.

The articles are grouped into four sections: (1) "The Problems and Pleasures of Preschool"; (2) "Growing Up and Getting Smarter"; (3) "Easier Ways with Kids Everywhere"; and (4) "Holidays and Hot Issues." Examples of articles in the first section are "Dragging In and Hurrying Out of Child Care,""Get Me to My Work on Time," and "Helping the Five Something Child Wait for Kindergarten." In the second section are articles such as "Show and Tell Time in Preschool,""Warriors on the Preschool Playground,""Men in Child Care Centers," and "The Truly Liberated Courageous Mother's Thanksgiving." Articles in the third section include "Shopping with Children in Malls and Markets,""Terrific Twos with Terrible Tempers,""Going Broke from Birthday Parties," and "Out of Diapers and into Underwear."
