Erumpent perfectly captures the energy of spring and the way children burst into play and learning when we give them time, space, and trust. Budding with curiosity, blossoming with ideas, now that’s erumpent! #ScotEduSky #EduSky #EYSky #Childdevelopment #Froebel #earlyyears #playmatters #MorePlay
Love this! Those erumpent buds (thank you Susie Dent!) are the perfect symbol for the energy bursting from your seasons wall and your wee learners. Spring cleaning and life skills wrapped into caring for the environment, just brilliant! #ScotEduSky #EYSky #EduSky #Froebel #PlayMatters #MorePlay

Thrilled that @danwuori.bsky.social is on this month's playwell podcast 👇 Looking forward to meeting him in person during his UK tour #ScotEduSky #EduSky #EYSky #MorePlayPlease
Such an important point! Too often, 'quality' is about what adults think, not what children need. Real quality means valuing children's right to play, their choices, and their joy, its not just about ticking boxes. Time to shift the focus! #EduSky #EduScot #EYSky #MorePlayPlease #PlayEveryday
Exciting new resource from @froebeltrust.bsky.social Latest pamphlet is packed with practical advice on creating rich, supportive play & learning environments for young children. Must-read for ANY educator, not only those working in ELC www.froebel.org.uk/training-and... #EduSky #EYSky #Froebel
Narcissistic attention seeking! Still telling us they know best about Early Years, babies are born ignorant, children need punishment and so on and so on? Are they still close/part of the DfE/Ofsted...Behaviour Tsar ignoramus included? when can we expect them to be banished from those depts? #EYSky

'Knowing that a child's play is a crucial element of their development, why are we continuing with a top-down approach, rather than placing the child at the centre of practice?' Another brilliant article from @aaronearlyyears.bsky.social. #ScotEduSky #EduSky #EYSky #EarlyYearsSky #playmatters

💓👇 I've had quite a few 'enthusiastic' singers in my nurseries over the years! #MakeAJoyfulSound #EduSky #EYSky #EarlyYearsSky
Working with a #Rightsrespecting primary school where the leader uses both the word #play and #resistance in conversation about #EYFS - with regard to quality early childhood focused play, pedagogy and curriculum. #joy #hope #EYSky #edusky
Yes! ⭐️
Agree it's highly unlikely (and short-sighted and sad😢)....but continue to pray that one day 'someone' will wake up and make the connection that so many of us already have #EYSky
