Indie Book Review by Christine Calabrese
The Golden Winged Fairy
The Golden Winged Fairy is filled with gorgeous artwork. The story is simple enough for ages 0-6 and is quite inspiring as a little fairy who doesn't fit in, turns out to save the day in fairy land. Your children, especially the girls, will love the pictures and the story. This is a wonderful example of excellent Indie writing and publishing. Great job Lala Fae! Keep up the good work!

Free Play is very important
"Engaging in as much free play as possible builds confidence. " Finally, common sense in this wonderful article! My parents gave us much free play time as children. When we went to summer camp in New Hampshire for two months, the activities never felt over-structured, somehow the camp had figured out how to unstructure structure. :-) The camp included horses and horse back riding. Perhaps those majestic animals added to spontaneity. The riding lessons were never a chore, they were a joy. At home, we enjoyed much free play. You can easily see the leanings and interests of a child if you let them play whatever they like. What attracts their attention and keeps it? Then as a teacher you can build on those interests or just use those interests to teach. Free play is a must and I must write about it as well. BrightHorizons is on the right track here! Oh and I especially love the term, "Slow Parenting" what a wonderful way to describe good parenting!
