She s Sandy Magwood, wife of S2aadian race car driver and p resident of Mosport Racing c(-hool, Gary Magwood, and hber service, called 'Creative Fun for Lttle Ones-, is somnething she bas developed as ber personal "anti-bouse- wife project". Mrs. Magwood, a graduate lu Early Childbood Education from Ryerson, bas worked witb the Department of Public Welfare, as a Play Therapist aI Torontos Sick Cildren's 'Hospital, and as ýsupervisor of RekJdale'Day Nursery. She îs also the mother of two boys, -aged eigbt and five, and as a resuît bas botb professional and practical experience wiîh cudeand some very definite ideas on the creative use of their piay time. Mrs. Magwoods greatest interest is nol SO much in tbe teaching of cbildren as in mnethods of allowing tbem 10 develop and create on their own. She believes Ibat shows whicb feach, such as Sesame Street, serve a valuable func- lion, but thaf Ibis is no reason to allow cbildren to sit Ibrough them several limes a day. Thus, a well-organized play area in the home is more important than a television set f0 a childs development.' In 1971, Sandy wrote and produced a book entitled "Creative Fun for Little Ones", bringing together many ideas on play materials and projects which mothers could easily adapt for their own children. Since that time, the book bas sold over 3,500 copies, and is now used as a teacbing manual in six com- ICanadian Tire Bowmanville STORE AND SERVICE DE PT. r WILL BE CLOSED Thuorsday, Sept. l2th OPEN AS USUAL 9 A.M. FRIDAY L.: Stew McTavish munity colleges. LasI year, Sandy, began presenting lectures outlining ber crealive ideas 10 interest- cd groups of parents, and bas since talked 10 over 2,700 mothers. She bas also been featured in several newspaper articles in Toronto, and parti- cipated in television shows and a C.B.C. radio broadcast. She generally finds that motb- crs are relieved to talk about Ibeir children witb other mothers, rather than with imposing figures sucb as psycholog ists and psycbia- trisîs, andbelieves Ibat mucb of the success of ber lectures and discussions is based on this fact. During the course of ber lecturing career, Mrs. Mag- wood found that the difficulty of purcbasing basic materials forced many mothers t0 abandon the metbods recom- mended. As a result, she formed a company, also called "Creative Fun for Little Ones', which brings alI the necessary materials conven- îently and inexpensively to- gether. She sehîs these mater- ils, but il is really ber ideas about bow they can be used wbich account for the success of ber ventures. Sandy would he pleased te speak 10 groups of parents (fathers as welh as moîbers are welcome), wbo express an interest ln. ber service. Ah- tbougb she does present art- icles for sale, she feels she bas more 10 offer that most "demonstrations" as sbe gives a lecture and side presentationy thatare simiilar to the ones she bas given at colleges, and to groups of psycbologists, social workers and nurses.:1 The techniques presented are geared 10 pre-schoolers, We are sorry to hear tbat Mrs. Grace Gaines is a patient in Memorial Hospital,, in Bowmanville.» Mr. and Mrs. Billy Bouch of Wincbester, Mrs. Annie Jacob of Ottawa, and Mr. and Mrs. Sherman O'Neil of Morris- burg were weckend guests of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Prunner and girls.
