What if the way we approach early childhood education isn’t the only way? 👀
In this episode of The Educator’s Edit, we explore early learning practices from around the world that challenge our Australian perspective, from outdoor sleeping in Scandinavia to forest kindergartens, risky play, and real responsibility for young children in Japan.
We unpack how different cultures approach independence, risk, routine, and community, and ask whether we might be over-controlling children’s environments.
This episode will get you thinking about what’s truly “best practice”… and what we could be doing differently.
