"The Winky Cherry System
of Teaching Young Children to Sew"
The
theory behind this book is to start 5 year-olds sewing what they
can handle and enjoy, and what you can safely and simply teach.
Not only will you learn how
to teach children to sew, but this system will help you form
competent little people who respect both people and things. You
will be introducing them to the joys of sewing, and also to a
"method of learning" that can be used in all phases of their
education. Oh? You thought you were going to learn to teach
5-year-olds to sew? You will...but your teachings will have a more
far reaching effect than you ever dreamed.
The book is broken down into
3 Parts
- Part I - Everything you
need to know to teach a "My First Sewing" Series
- Part II - The psychology
of teaching children
- Part III - The business
of teaching children to sew.
