Play is vital in the early years--as important as letter sounds, counting, and word recognition." --Jerome Boushee, MEd, Principal, Native American Reservation<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Dr. Aerial Liese has a Ph.D. in Special Education and a minor in Mental Health and At-Risk Populations from Walden University.
