This comprehensive guide is packed with information and ideas about working with children who are going through the change of dentition. It is essential reading for educators, parents, therapists, and all who need insight into this tumultuous time, sometimes referred to as "first adolescence." Six sections cover anthroposophical medical and pedagogical research on the change of teeth; the role of the kindergarten teacher in relation to the older children in the classroom; issues of gender and social inclusion; practical suggestions from experienced teachers; age-appropriate stories, verses, songs, and games; and resources for working with parents. The joys as well as the challenges of working with children from five to seven years of age are brought to light in this rich and fascinating resource.
