I recently ran a “Small World Play” professional development session for our district ECE and Early Learning Facilitators. Using Small World Play in our centres is a great way to extend learning through play using themes or stories that are being presented in the classroom.

The opportunities to build on language and story through these “worlds” are endless.

They were armed with only ideas and stories that were already happening with our centres and were prepared to start creating.

I was so impressed by the enthusiasm and creativity these ECE’s brought to the table and having the opportunity to do some great collaborating.
