Blog

Welcome to the Playful Childhoods blog

Our blog introduces news and stories from people with something to say about play, letting us hear about play from different perspectives. You will find articles and short videos from children and teenagers, parents, people who work with children, researchers and academics.

Our blog is relevant and up to date, sharing news and updates. It is seasonal too with ideas for the summer holidays and how to play conkers in the autumn, for example. You’ll find supportive tips and playful ideas, information and resources.

It includes articles written by guests, people such as parents and professionals with knowledge and experience, who share their understanding about children’s play.
