Attended the launch of #BornToPlay, the latest and final book in the #PostcardsFromScotland series. Lovely to hear from Carol Craig who came up with the title of the book, Tam Baillie and John McKendrick who edited the book, and Sue Palmer who wrote one of the chapters.

5 wisdoms from James Cook at the #CALAConference2025 - from the swirling mass of paperwork and guidance to the child at the centre… 1. Be led by the little people 2. Pave your own path 3. Be curious and research-informed 4. Take a developmental approach 5. Have fun!

John McKendrick shares his families play scenarios while sharing what he has learnt from his shared research passions play and poverty. Then Marguerite HB takes us through how advocates for Play have changed the law to ensure Play is taken into account in local planning

Outdoor play and learning aren’t just “nice” — they’re essential for children’s mental health and holistic development. 🌿💚 Excited to head to Campsie Glen Woodland tomorrow with Mrs Woolfries via G20 Youth Project Forest School Centre #VitaminN #MorePlayPlease #ChildDirectedLearning

Yesterday I went to the Edinburgh Summer School August 2024 to hear and celebrate with them the work they have been doing wherever in the education system. Great to meet Educators from Childminders to teachers to Senior Leaders in our Early Years and Early Level Sector.
