Description
Book SynopsisBiting is an issue that is more than skin-deep. It can affect any toddler in any setting and can have developmental, emotional, or environmental causes. While, not an unexpected occurrence among toddlers, biting is more than a physical act. It is a serious, complicated issue that brings frustration to the biter, bitee, par¬ents, and child care providers. This book offers technique-build¬ing advice for approaching biting in ways that work effectively for everyone involved.
No Biting, Third Edition, has over 50% new and updated content, such as a ready-to-use curriculum, organized into eight short training modules.
Perhaps no other concern in toddler programs challenges teachers and parents as much as biting does. This how-to handbook helps you work through biting with successful strategies and trusted guidance.
