The Social Child thoughtfully discusses the key principles of children's social development alongside descriptions of everyday practice. It aims to provide the reader with a rich understanding of the social skills and relationships that children develop as well as their discovery of communication and language.
The book explores the importance of developing genuine, trusted and reciprocal relationships with babies and young children and shows how a child's intrinsic drive to be social can be nourished and supported.

Toni Buchan has been awarded a Masters in Educational Studies at Canterbury Christ Church University, and continues to lecture in Early Years and Child Development.
