Welcome to Play Makes Sense, the podcast for parents who have ever watched their child play and thought, “Why are they doing that?”

I’m Ruth, a Teacher-turned-Mum, and I’m here to help you make sense of the way young children play.

From lining things up and carrying everything in sight, to throwing, hiding, spinning and doing the same thing over and over again, your child’s play is telling you something.... And understanding Play Schemas can help tell you what.

Each episode, we’ll explore the fascinating world of children’s play, unpack play schemas, and share practical, playful insights to help you understand your child, respond with confidence, and find more joy in the everyday moments.

Because when you understand the why behind the play, play makes sense.
