Alliance for Childhood
"The Alliance for Childhood promotes policies and practices that support
children’s healthy development, love of learning, and joy in living."
Please join me in celebrating this new project brought to you by the Alliance for Childhood:
"This new 55-minute PBS documentary, produced by Michigan Television, is now available for public screenings by schools, universities, and community organizations. The brainchild of Elizabeth Goodenough, the film examines the social and technological trends that conspire to rob children of their birthright: time and opportunity for unstructured, spontaneous play, especially outdoors in nature."
What is play? An active-learning, holistic, child-centred approach to children in The Early Years has been a consistent theme in Ontario education for decades. It is supported by developmental theory, such as Piaget's Theory, and by research findings. "Breaking down" the child's development into specific areas is an artificial convenience. The research clearly shows that development is holistic and that physical development, language, cognitive, play and social-emotional development are all interwoven.
Playing for Keeps is a strong, credible voice promoting healthy play for all children.
"IPA is an international non-governmental organization founded in Denmark in 1961.
