Synopsis "Avoid Hard Work! And Other Encouraging Problem-Solving Tips for the Young, the Very Young, and the Young at Heart (Natural Math Series) (in English)"
The term problem-solving sounds scary. Who wants problems? Why do we want to subject ourselves and youngsters to problems? The word problem comes from the word probe, meaning inquiry. Inquiry is a much friendlier idea. Rather than attack a problem that has been given to us, let us accept an invitation to inquire into and to explore an interesting opportunity. Even toddlers can excel at inquiring, exploring, and investigating the world around them!
