Hi Sonja,
Thank you for your respons. I have passed on your mail to Jan and Inga,
AND!
Thanks for a great article - it was just what I needed in my present
work with some pre schools here in the northern part of Sweden.
One of the pre schools works with a well known figure - Plupp - from a
Swedish Fairy tale. I will use your article when we meet next time.
Thanks
Leif
