In this month’s “Maggie Moment”, one of Australia’s favourite parenting authors – and a staunch advocate for children – Maggie Dent puts a call out to early years educators and other teachers to hold their ground about keeping play in the early years.
With a Federal election looming in Australia and very little progress having been made in recent years, Maggie offers words of encouragement to people in these valuable professions to stay passionate and be a voice of positivity.
For more on Maggie’s views about the push down of formalised learning in the early years, see her article on “Why Are We Still Stealing Childhood?”
