Show Notes
Our environment plays a huge part in how children learn, explore and develop. In this episode, we’re talking about why we see the environment as the “third teacher” and how the spaces, resources and experiences around children can encourage curiosity, independence and creativity. Because sometimes, the best learning happens when we simply create the right space for children to discover it for themselves.
More from Parents Meeting
In this episode, we’re talking about learning through play , the heart of our Early Years ethos.
From moving room to room and settling into a new environment, to tidy-up time, mealtimes and switching between activities, we’re chatting all about transitions throughout the nursery day. We explore why they can be tricky for children and share simple, practical ways to make them calmer, smoother and more positive for everyone.
Welcome to Parents Meeting, a podcast created to bring parents and early years professionals together for honest, helpful and relatable conversations about young children. In this short introductory episode, we introduce who we are, why we created Parents Meeting and what you can expect from future episodes. From sleep and toilet training to child development, behaviour, learning and everyday parenting experiences, we’ll be exploring the topics that matter most to families. Whether you’re a parent, carer or simply interested in understanding young children a little better, we hope Parents Meeting gives you practical ideas, reassurance and a place to start meaningful conversations. Because little learners inspire big conversations.
