EP 10:Trusting Play - Even When It Doesn’t Look Like Learning

What does real learning look like? In this episode, I explore why play often doesn’t resemble schoolwork and why that’s not just okay, it’s ideal. You’ll learn how cognitive, social, emotional and physical growth are all deeply embedded in the messy, noisy and imaginative play children naturally gravitate toward.
