The science behind play: Why is it so important?

Don’t miss this 1-hr free Kinderly webinar where award-winning trainer, Ben Kingston-Hughes, will explore the science behind play and why it is so important for us to understand as early years practitioners.

Play is the single most important developmental process in any child’s life. Research now shows that children exposed to enriched, playful environments develop bigger, more complex, faster and more resilient brains! In this thought-provoking session, play expert Ben Kingston-Hughes will explore the fundamental neuroscience behind play and how we can begin to work with children’s brains to have a profound impact on their wellbeing and development.

This webinar is appropriate for early years practitioners working with children aged 0-5 years.
