Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
This graduate/advanced undergraduate textbook introduces the concept of loose parts and investigates its use in the outdoor learning environment. Exploring affordance theory as an underpinning approach to outdoor pedagogy, the book will also introduce readers to schemas, explaining why these repeated patterns of children’s play are so important as a window into their world. Loose parts are then discussed as a means of nourishing and nurturing children’s schemas outdoors. The text offers a new lens for educators to observe children through, supporting child development and curriculum development via a holistic pedagogy.
