Episode 2: “Can I go play now?”

Tactile or pretend, solo or together, indoors or outdoors, organized or messy, in-person or even over video chat, playtime comes in so many different forms–all of which are essential to growing and learning. In this Raising Curious Learners episode, our hosts Elizabeth and Ann have a conversation about the lasting power of play. They reflect back on their own childhood experiences and use their understanding of current conditions during the pandemic to help parents understand how children express themselves and benefit from different types of play.
