Description

In this episode, we welcome our guest Elaine Power who shares her experience as a primary teacher and as a mum on how play really helps children develop necessary skills in life. She recommends the most engaging open-ended toys for birthday gifts, talks about play areas and resources to have at home at home and shares ideas for great toys and activities for outdoor play. She also shares lots of ideas about sensory play and how to set up activities for siblings of different ages. At the end of the episode we welcome my 8 year old daughter who shares her experience in school.
