Sunday Funday! Accidentally happened upon this yesterday! I’ll keep ya posted!
Edited to add this link >>> http://www.early-pictures.ch/kellogg/archive/en/query You can scroll through and look at the 8000 images she cataloged of all the scribbles and wrote about in this handbook!
Heading to Ft. Wayne!
— at Orlando International Airport (MCO).Catching up on yesterday's NYT - this article caught my eye, and my heart! https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/15/magazine/kids-play.html
Got a nice shout out for the CHILD CARE BAR AND GRILL podcast from Marc Armitage at Play! Thought I'd share it here as well as the links to his on-demand session of the same topic - I highly suggest you watch it while it's still available!!!!
I'm a regular listener to the 'Childcare Bar & Grill' podcast with Jeff Johnson, so it was nice to get a couple of mentions in the latest episode. Jeff had found an advertisement for a "curated set of loose parts" for $265 and with Li...sa Murphy, AKA Ooey Gooey, Inc, there is an excellent little conversation around loose parts in general but the idea of curating paid loose parts in particular. Lisa mentions that for some, loose parts have become part of the 'I've done that' tick box; Jeff talks about how educators can become 'precious' over their materials because they have monetary value. If you haven't signed up for this one you should.

By complete coincidence, the on demand gigs of mine that Lisa mentions are up and available again this month as single sessions or in a bundle of three gigs with a 20% discount.
