Protecting Play Creating Meaningful, Uninterrupted Play in Early Childhood Classrooms (Virtual)
Play is one of the most powerful ways young children learn, yet it is often interrupted by schedules, routines, and adult-directed practices. This training explores why uninterrupted play is essential for child development and how educators can create environments that support deep, meaningful engagement. Participants will examine common barriers to sustained play, connect play practices to quality standards, and learn practical strategies to protect and extend play in early childhood classrooms.
