Welcome to
"The New Approach To Early
Childhood Education."
A guide to transforming how we think about and approach early childhood learning.
This book is a call to action for educators, administrators, parents, and anyone passionate about nurturing the minds and hearts of young children.
The traditional education system often focuses on curriculum and teaching specific skills and knowledge, using direct instruction as the primary method.
However, we are witnessing a shift toward a more child and heart centered approach that emphasizes observing, documenting, and expanding on a child's natural play and curiosity.
This heart-centered approach seeks to awaken each child’s consciousness, allowing them to explore, question, and understand the world at their own pace.
This book outlines a framework for early childhood education that encourages teachers to act as facilitators—creating a nurturing environment where children feel safe to choose with who, what, when, where and how they play; and to explore where their imaginations take them.
Through observation, teachers can understand each child's individual journey, document their progress, and then expand their play opportunities in meaningful ways that respect their interests.
At its core, this approach aims to give children foundational skills not just for school, but for life—equipping them with the social, emotional, and creative capabilities needed to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
Gordy's Mountain Moves is an engaging exercise book for kids that takes young readers on an exciting adventure filled with playful physical activities.
Through Gordy’s journey, children are encouraged to move their bodies, helping them build gross motor skills like balance, coordination, and jumping.
In the storybook Gord'ys Mountain Moves, each movement has a purpose—to support early childhood learning through physical activity, linking motor skills to cognitive growth.
Inspired by the principles behind The Whole Brain Child, this book introduces fun activities that foster brain-body connections, laying a strong foundation for both physical and mental development.
Designed to be playful yet purposeful, Gordy's story helps children explore the world of brain body parenting, where movement helps unlock emotional regulation and problem-solving skills.
Whether used in a classroom or at home, Gordy's Mountain Moves is perfect for parents and teachers who want to provide young children with a head start in developing key skills.
This early childhood movement book invites children to use whole body coordination movement to balance, crawl, hop, and jump—all while having a great time.
Let the adventures begin!
