Climbing the Symbolic Ladder

This, my friends, is one of the most wonderful things I have EVER read.  It applies to all kiddos anywhere.  I LOVE the way it helps me know, concretely, things that I can do in thinking about helping symbolic development as well as why it is so important.  It's a pdf, so even if you don't have time to read it now, go and save it, print it out and put it in your car to read pieces when you can...

ENJOY!
