As Carlsson-Paige explains, there are three attributes critical to kids' healthy development: time and space for creative play, a feeling of safety in today's often frightening world, and strong, meaningful relationships with both adults and other children--attributes that we, as a society, are failing to protect and nurture. From advising parents on which toys foster creativity (and which stifle it) to guiding them in how to use \"power-sharing\" techniques to resolve conflicts and generate empathy, Carlsson-Paige offers hands-on steps parents can take to create a safe, open, and imaginative environment in which kids can relish childhood and flourish as human beings. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Dr. Carlsson-Paige explains the many ways our culture and media are threatening our children's healthy development. She gives adults concrete strategies for fighting back. Today's parents need this book.\"--\u003cb\u003eMarian Wright Edelman, Children's Defense Fund\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45354879385751,"sku":"9780452290099","price":2143.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780452290099.webp?v=1767308757","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/taking-back-childhood-a-proven-roadmap-for-raising-confident-creative-compassionate-kids-9780452290099","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
