Pre-school children are continually growing and changing. They are fascinated with how they look and enjoy looking at themselves in the mirror. Caring for hair is part of a young child's routine. Brushing, cutting, decorating and gelling hair is of great interest. There are some young children who are fearful of washing their hair and need reassurance and time. We hope the practical and creative activities featured in this series enhance children's perceptions of their physical attributes as well as their awareness of those around them.
