Webinar Replay: Trusting Children with Real Things
Instant access to a practical webinar replay for early childhood educators who want to include "real things" in their environment and program.
If we want children to learn real skills, we need to trust them with real things. How can you understand what happens to glass if it is dropped, if you have never held a glass?
Children will typically embrace the opportunity to use something real, something risky, something special. They want us to know that they can be trusted. They want us to know that they are capable.
Sure, it can be scary to hand a child a glass for the first time, but it's not just a matter of handing it over and walking away. When we trust children with real things, we also have a responsibility - a responsibility to show the child how to use that real thing, how to care for it, to explain the potential risks involved. That's what we'll be exploring in this session: the practicalities of trusting children with real things.
In this workshop we will cover:
-
Why children need “real things”
-
Keeping children safe when using real things
-
Practical ways to include real things in your environment and program.
