Product Description
This one-of-a-kind parent's survival guide makes daily life with young children more rewarding and less daunting. HERE IS A UNIQUE PARENTING BOOK filled with coping strategies, activities, and ideas for successfully managing day-to-day life with preschoolers. Arranged chronologically over the course of a day, chapters address such topics as waking up, dressing, and managing the morning rush; successful napping without struggles; managing sibling rivalry; making the most out of outdoor play; and, finally, winding down, bath time, and bedtime. Special attention is given to helping preschoolers cope with transitions, meal times, and changes in routines. Each chapter begins with an introduction that highlights common problems, discusses relevant developmental issues, and offers general suggestions to avoid troublesome moments. Detailed, individual activities with easy-to-follow instructions, rhymes, and games follow. Sidebars include important, relevant information on safety issues, real-life anecdotes, and references to enriching resources, such as book and music suggestions. Using the ideas in the book, parents can transform boring or aggravating at-home tasks into experiences that a child-and adult-may find pleasurable and stimulating. With an advanced degree in clinical child psychology and years of professional experiences in child and youth services, author Carol Baicker-McKee recognizes the special needs and abilities of toddlers. As a three-time veteran of the delivery room, she brings personal experience, humor, and hard-won insight into the special joys and struggles of day-to-day life with young children.

 | The teacher and mom in me both love this book! Jan 3, 2004 |
| After borrowing both Fussbuster books from the library I knew I had to own them. After teaching/working with children for 15 years and currently being a foster mom... this book still inspires me, gives me new insight into the minds of older toddlers and preschoolers, and really does help me "smooth over the rough spots in my day". I highly recommend this book as a must have for every parent who is interested in making their day and that of their child's more peaceful and as stress free as it can be with children. | | | | my new favorite baby shower gift Aug 30, 2003 |
| This is my new favorite baby shower gift. It might not be used immediately, but it will be reached for again and again when that infant becomes a preschooler. This book is the best ! The ideas are easy, affordable, easy to remember and just plain do-able. I also highly recommend Fussbusters on the Go. Sincere thanks to the author for these 2 books. They are lifesavers! | | | | Fun and Realistic Oct 23, 2002 |
| It feels like I am chatting with a friend over coffee and problem solving about a crazy weekend. There were some great ideas but even the auther reminds you that all the ideas are not right for everyone which keeps you from feeling like a complete failure (a la Martha Stewart). Good kid stories that make you smile and even laugh aloud and Reminds us all to have FUN! | | | | Truly Useful! May 6, 2002 |
| Finally, a parenting book that doesn't make me feel bad! Instead, Fussbusters makes you feel like you're in it together with a friend. It's full of humor, realistic advice, and parenting expertise. Makes me want to actually try some of these activities -- once I can put the book down! A really fun read. | | | Write your own review about FussBusters at Home: Strategies and Games for Smoothing the Rough Spots in Your Preschooler's Day
