Parent Play School: The practical guide to supporting your child as they play, learn and grow
Early Years educator, play specialist and mum of two, Emma Greenshields, has worked with many families over the years, as a teacher, nanny and childminder, hearing parent’s problems, questions and confessions along the way. When she found herself at home with her own children, Emma experienced the challenges of filling the long stretches of time between naps, meals and (often cold) cups of tea first-hand. Social media was filled with play ideas, but these often required a lengthy set-up and still fell flat. There had to be a better way.
In Parent Play School, Emma shares how she has drawn on the tips, tricks and knowledge gathered throughout her career to encourage her children’s play and learning at home, and how you can do it too. . .
