About this event
Discover how to harness one of the most powerful and versatile play resources in early childhood education—loose parts! In this engaging and practical workshop, participants will
explore the 5Ws of loose parts and gain insight into the #1 mistake educators often make during play. We’ll unpack the general course of events in play, discuss the importance of
trusting the process, and examine the educator’s role in fostering meaningful, child-led exploration. You’ll also learn how to design intentional environments, find practical storage
solutions, and build excitement and buy-in from your team and families. Whether you’re new to loose parts or looking to deepen your practice, this workshop will leave you inspired and ready to take action.
