Play on the Move:
Understanding Why The Playdough Gets Taken to the Home Corner and Exploring How our Response Impacts Children's Play
Thursday March 12th, 2026
6:30PM Sydney Time (AEDT)
Inspired EC is a NESA Recognised PD Provider as of January 2026.
Since Nicole's recent blog post, "Stop taking the playdough to the home corner" (and other ways we attempt to stop "cross pollination" of our resources!!), seems to have really resonated with people (good and bad!) We have decided to offer the opportunity to reflect on "cross pollination" and the different ways this appears in a live-online workshop.
In this live online session, we will unpack why children naturally transport resources - like playdough to the home corner, water to the sandpit, or blocks in prams - and how this links to schema, creativity and deeper engagement.
Together, we will reflect on common “stop!” responses, explore simple environment tweaks that say “yes” to movement and mess, and consider how our reactions can either limit or liberate rich, authentic play.
