Year Published: 1989
Pages: 120pp ISBN: 1-85425-013-2
Book Type: Handbooks/Manuals
Resource Type: Book
A collection of over 300 games and sports which put co-operation before competition.
Abstract: Help for parents who would like to teach their children non-competitive, non-violent games but don't know of any. This book contains over 300 of them, ranging from quiet, personal games to traditional party games and outdoor games. Some games are suitable for one or two children, others are for large groups. The contents are helpfully divided into various categories, such as traditional singing games, tag games, nature games, trust games, co-operative sports, guessing games, and board games. A rating system indicates for whom the game is thought to be suitable for, i.e. children under seven, juniors and young teenagers, adults, those who are less active or have a disability. A bibliography for further reading is also included.
