It can be difficult to answer families’ questions about play. How can you take all the relevant theories of play and learning and package them in a sentence or two? You can’t! That’s before you even think about coaching families through the process of supporting their child’s interests and inquiries! We’re in this together!

Starting with play schemas, we have created this workshop so that you can share the wonderful world of schemas and invite families into the process of play. Use this presentation to walk them through how their child inquires through the world, what they are finding out, and how they learn from this! This knowledge has a big impact for families – empowering them to be part of their child’s play journey too!

Why wait? Spread the love of play and learning!

How to use this presentation:

  • Organise a family session or a coffee morning using this resource 
  • Use this resource as a guide to set up engagements 
  • Invite families to play and chat
  • Share the schema love and use this as a basis for future conversations as you discuss their child’s learning journey
