Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Child's play is serious business. Experts know that the games babies and toddlers play, from make-believe and block-building to rough-and-tumble horseplay, are crucial to their physical, social, and emotional development.No one knows this better than Debbie Frisch. Raised in an abusive home, she never experienced the joy of carefree play in a safe, nurturing space.

Along the way, she discovered how our society short-changes kids and their parents, especially those in underserved communities.Debbie decided to do something about it. With the help of family and friends, she launched HelloBaby, the nation's first free-standing, free of charge, drop-in play space for babies, toddlers, and their caregivers. Nestled in a specially-designed storefront space in a former 'play desert' on Chicago's south side, HelloBaby welcomes families of every background, offering creative, fun, enriching activities from bubble-blowing and finger painting to story-telling and music time. Unexpectedly, it's also become a place where overworked moms and dads (and grandparents and other caregivers, too) can escape the stresses of solitary child care, make friends, and get access to comfort, advice, and other forms of support.

It's a story rich with lessons for other nonprofit leaders-and for anyone who's ever wondered what they can do to help make our communities into nurturing places where every child can thrive. …
