The diggers paused to reflect on that, then decided amongst themselves that this was exactly what they were going to do, dig to the molten core to release the lava. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool
As play based educators, our work is rooted in building a more peaceful world through how we educate our children. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool #peace
This is a moment for them to show us their intelligence. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool

"You better not dig too deep because then you might get to the lava and it will erupt on us." The diggers paused to reflect on that, then decided that this was exactly what they were going to do, dig to the molten core to release the lava. #playbasedlearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool

We teach them that while they should strive to be themselves, they can't do it in school, in church, in a theater, a museum, or, frankly, pretty much in any public space. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool
The great mathematician and philosopher Alfred North Whitehead wrote, "(A)ll training in science should begin as well as end in research, and in getting hold of the subject-matter as it occurs in nature." #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool #scienceeducation
Is there anything that all good preschool teachers do? It's a question worthy of thought. #PlayBasedLearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool #teaching
We KG teachers turn everyday materials into teaching tools
Learners are developing early literacy skills by shaping the letter “s” using eggshells. Coloured, & broken into small pieces, they become a hands-on resource that helps children recognise patterns & build letters.

Western science tells that sweet-smelling sights are not objective aspects of reality. Tens of thousands of years of human experience, and every young child, begs to differ. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool
I remain encouraged, even in a world that too often seems to love money more than children. #playbasedlearning #EarlyLearning #EarlyChildhoodEducation #preschool
Our minds function best when engaging life itself. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool
No one has ever lived a joyful life unless they have spent it accomplishing meaningful things, shoulder-to-shoulder with others. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #cooperation
This is why I worry every time an adult dismisses a child's boredom as "a good thing." A little bit is necessary. A lot, like the degree to which many experience boredom in standard schools, can be deadly. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool #boredom
Utopia is not a destination, but rather an act of one human caring for another in their time of need. Actual utopia is created in moments of kindness. #PlayBasedLearning #EarlyLearning #earlychildhoodeducation #Preschool
When children start feeding each other's behavior in this way, more often than not they are doing one of three things: 1) seeking intensity, 2) seeking collaboration, 3) testing the boundaries of the community, all of which represent healthy developmental impulses. #playbasedlearning #preschool
I'm not saying this is an easy thing to do, but becoming the person we want to be will never happen if we wait until we feel like that person. Action is character. The rest will follow. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #EarlyChildhoodEducation #preschool
How can you understand light without knowing about dark? #playbasedlearning #earlychildhoodeducation #EarlyLearning #preschool
Thirteen colleges across the state will lose their programs if this cut happens, leaving thousand of families without the kind of support they count on to not just raise their children, but to do so within the context of the kind of village that every child deserves. #playbasedlearning #preschool

Play-based learning engages both the mind and the body. One simple, powerful way teachers do this is through energisers: short, fun activities that help children reset, refocus and get ready for the next task.

In the early years, we're are all familiar with this phenomenon. One disruptive child can be absorbed into the group, but when two or more start connecting with one another a new social center of gravity is created. #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #preschool
