Week 7: Chapter 7 – Planning Your Role

This is a short chapter but deserves a lot of thought. I assume that often we  wonder about what our role is as children are playing – debating if we should enter children’s  play or not (and I imagine contemplating  IF we enter what should we be doing.)  I suspect as you read this chapter you will appreciate the delineation of the roles you can take! Taking this a step further is being able to describe to parents and co-workers what their role might be with a particular child. Enjoy this chapter! 

And here is another article on play. So nice to see people are getting it!
