Description
Join early childhood author and podcaster Heather Bernt-Santy for a special Month of Play celebration exploring why play is not just a childhood pastime--it's the child's right. Together, we'll reflect on the role of play advocacy in protecting children's joy, agency, well-being, and identity while considering what it means to champion children's rights in today's early childhood landscape. Sharing stories from her book Using Schema Play Theory to Advocate for Free Play in Early Childhood, this uplifting event will offer encouragement, practical inspiration, and a renewed commitment to creating spaces where children can fully experience the power of play. Whether you're an educator, administrator, advocate, or family member, you'll leave energized to support free play as an essential part of childhood.
