LEARN SPECIFIC PROMPTS AND IDEAS FOR IMAGINATIVE PLAY
Imaginative play is vital for young children and they learn by doing. Open ended play together while they're young is an investment. It will help them play more independently and creatively as they age.
Experts warn against too much screen time but I am not here to scold you. I am here to help with the "what then?" I will give you ideas, prompts, tips and hacks you can use to help make your life easier and more fun!
You will learn ideas you can try with your child the very next day. They are made to be tailored to your kiddo's interests so they work for everyone. It's like improv ideas for play time. I speak to groups of parents, caregivers and teachers and am available for one-on-one consultation in person or online.
Imaginative play helps kids rely on screens less and helps parents and caregivers enjoy their time more! It also helps prepare them for school and friendships.
