Childhood Play is
Serious Business
Have
you noticed that kids today don't know how to play? This book can help
change that. Childhood play is serious business. Many studies have shown
that childhood play assists in developing a child's: imagination, social
skills, self esteem, ability to learn and physical fitness. A California
Department of Education study indicates that a child's regular
participation in outdoor activity produces a "measured mastery of
science concepts by 27%".
We
fill our "Storehouse of Interests" when we are young
adding
only a few to the list as adults
If
there is any truth in this statement, we then have the heavy
responsibility of assuring that our children and grandchildren fill
their "Storehouses" with as many interests as possible. That's
why this book has been written. It is when we are young that we first
experience the excitement of adventure, gain the confidence to try new
things and, develop our zest for life. It is through play that our
children not only have fun, but more importantly, discover interests and
develop skills that will last their lifetime.
How
to use this book
This book is designed to be used as a source of ideas and a listing of
choices of things to do instead of watching TV or playing computer and
video games. We have segregated activities into twenty two categories
for convenience and ease of use.

Three
Books in One
We
eat a lot of things you generally don't think of as bait.
For example: you probably would
never think of lobster as bait but we have found lobsters, albeit
small ones, in the stomachs of Striped Bass and Cod we have caught. Yes,
favorites of ours such as lobster,
shrimp, clams and oysters etc. are favorites with the fish also and are fine baits.
Consider the food chain.
Essentially everything in the deep is food (bait) for something
else.
So,
if your fisherman enjoys fishing, but doesn't seem to be able to catch anything, why
not have him bring a bait that he will enjoy eating at the end of the day. The
book contains 115 Tried and True Fishing Tips that might help change his luck. If
so, the 126 delicious recipes will come in handy. If not, there is
a whole lot of fishing Humor, Jokes and Stories, that are bound to put
your fisherman in a good mood even if he comes home
"fishless."
An
ideal gift for the fisherman that has everything.
You can be sure he doesn't have this book.
