Yeah, I think the general direction is in line with what we always talk about here for the very young... simplify, keep it fun, let some things happen naturally, focus on the do's and not the don'ts, applaud effort, hit it hard/throw it hard, have ice cream.
JMO, a few things seemed a bit odd. The throwing thing... so when you play catch, you're supposed to throw it hard back to a 4 y.o. but ten feet to the side? Just to not show a bad throwing motion? Then what? Do you chase it down every time and hand it to him? Also, I do think some occasional instruction is OK. It makes us grown-ups feel important
