All Join Hands Down Home Press As hard as it may be for some adults to believe, millions of little girls are now growing up without even knowing how to play hopscotch, and millions of little boys haven't the slightest idea how to shoot marbles. Television and video games have interdicted the centuries-old traditions of passing familiar games from parent to child. And fewer and fewer parents have time or patience for that most important bond between parent and child—play. In All Join Hands, Heidi Hartwiger seeks not only to preserve traditional games once known to all, she also encourages parents to celebrate the joys of playing with their children and offers suggestions and directions for scores of fun things that grownups and children can do together. Whether you're a parent, a grandparent, a caregiver to children, or just a nostalgic elder, this book is to be treasured.
