You can never have enough space. And if you can't, just
think of your kids--all the time they have to spend in tight
spaces—like:
- Cars
- Planes
- Trains
- The doctor's office
- The grocery store
- Being sick or housebound
- Waiting in line.

Kids need room to move around, but there are many times when
they just plain can't have it.
While raising two exuberant boys, teaching preschool, leading
Cub Scouts, and running a birthday party business, Carol
Kranowitz came up with savvy, creative ways to keep kids content
in tight spaces. Her activity ideas combine old standbys with
new ones born of desperation and cramped quarters. They follow a
philosophy that helps kids develop their different skills and
abilities while entertaining themselves and interacting.
You'll find great projects for every imaginable small space
parents and children encounter:
-
Fun Food for Tiny
Kitchens: Ants on a Log, Footprints in the Snow, and Aiken
Drum Faces
-
In the Urban
Community: Windowsill Garden, Bug Jar, and
Corn-on-the-Sponge
-
When the Walls
Seem to Be Closing In: Pillow Crashing, People Sandwich, and
Teeter-Totter
When what you've got is a small space and a restless child, what
you need are 101 ingenious solutions--right away. Here they
are--easy to implement, creative fun for the three to
seven-year-old--activities that can turn tough moments into
teachable, terrific ones
