Let’s Play – Everyday and Everywhere

Do you believe in the power of play? Do you value play? Are you seeking experiential learning through play?

Join us to experience a variety of ways to play. Together we will engage in collaborative dialogue, discussion, and critical reflection on our current practices. All with the hopes of finding deeper meaning in our work. Play is crucial in the lives of children and also our lives as adults. Spend time with us exploring the power of play through many different mediums like storytelling walks, being outdoors, utilizing loose parts, messy play, and more!

This Community of Practice is for anyone working with children who is looking for new ways to inspire learning and create a community within early childhood education.
