Abstract
Les statistiques le confirment : les enfants sont plus sédentaires qu?avant. Des changements familiaux, sociaux et technologiques font en sorte qu?ils semblent avoir perdu l?habitude ? ou qu?on ne leur laisse plus le temps - de jouer spontanément dehors à toute heure du jour, seuls, en groupe ou en famille, autour de la maison, au parc ou dans d?autres endroits verts, quand ils sont accessibles? Pourtant, les bienfaits du jeu libre et actif à l?extérieur, lorsque ceux-ci sont pratiqués en toute sécurité, sont multiples. Peu importe leur âge, les enfants accèdent ainsi à de nouvelles expériences, dépensent leur énergie, laissent libre court à leur imagination, éliminent les effets négatifs du stress, améliorent leur condition physique, leur concentration de même que leur sommeil. Bref, ils grandissent de la plus belle des façons. En servant de modèles aux jeunes, les parents contribuent activement à leur faire découvrir le plaisir de jouer dehors. En plus de fournir des clés pour y parvenir, Viens jouer dehors! leur suggère plusieurs jeux adaptés à différents âges, différents lieux et à chaque saison.

Abstract
A book that aims at proving that training preschoolers with flash cards and attempting to hurry intellectual development doesn't pay off. In fact, the authors claim, kids who are pressured early on to join the academic rat race don't fair any better than children who are allowed to take their time. Alarmed by the current trend toward creating baby Einsteins, the book urges parents to step back and practice the "Three R's: Reflect, Resist, and Recenter." Instead of pushing preschoolers into academically oriented programs that focus on early achievement, the authors suggest that children learn best through simple playtime, which enhances problem solving skills, attention span, social development and creativity. The authors walk parents through much of the recent research on the way children learn, debunking such myths as the Mozart effect, and pointing out that much learning unravels naturally, programmed through centuries of evolution.

Ruby hates herself so much that she often feels more like a piece of rubbish than a little girl. Sometimes Ruby feels so miserable that she wants to sleep and sleep and never wake up again. Then Ruby meets Dot and, over time, Dot helps Ruby to move from self-hate to self-respect. After a very important dream, and help from Dot, Ruby finds her voice and her anger, and stands up to the bullies. She makes new friends and knows what it's like to feel happy for the first time in her life. The guidebook helps children who: don't like themselves or feel there is something fundamentally wrong with them; have been deeply shamed; have received too much criticism or haven't been encouraged enough; let people treat them badly because they feel they don't deserve better; do not accept praise or appreciation because they feel they don't deserve it; feel defeated by life, fundamentally unimportant, unwanted or unlovable; bully because they think they are worthless or think they are worthless because they are bullied; and, feel they don't belong or do not seek friends because they think no-one would want to be their friend.

Abstract
Superflex Superdecks are card games created to invoke your own superflexible thinking as you teach students to be more superflexible social thinkers. It's all about superflexibility! The game pack is a companion teaching tool to the popular Superflex Curriculum, which helps parents and professionals teach children ages 8 to 11 about social thinking, social regulation, and social problem solving.
The Superdecks are not an introduction to Superflex, and should only be used with students who are already familiar with the concept of being a Social Detective (introduced in the book, You Are a Social Detective), and are either working through or have completed the Superflex Curriculum. The games and activities provided prompt players to think about the powers of the characters, brainstorm which Unthinkable might appear in a situation, match strategies to characters, or Thinkables and Unthinkables, and use their social thinking in other superflexible ways.

Abstract
Put Pretending into Your Child?s Play is the third booklet in the Make Play R.O.C.K. booklet series for parents of young children with autism.
This booklet focuses on helping parents expand their child?s pretend play skills during fun, everyday play activities. Children with social communication difficulties often find it challenging to pretend, so adults must take some extra steps to provide them with the opportunities and encouragement they need to learn.
