Little Steps, Big Futures:The Podcast
Play Is a Right, Not a Reward
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Aoife and Jenny dive into the UN’s new International Day of Play and why it’s more than just a celebration. They discuss play as a fundamental right, not a luxury, and explore why it's still being overlooked around the world. While applauding the UN for spotlighting play, they also ask the big question: why do we even need a day to remind the world? Join them as they unpack what play truly means for childhood, development, and global equality.
