Your toddler just dumped an entire bin of blocks on the floor and walked away like he pays rent here. Plot twist: that was the most productive thing he did all week. ๐๏ธ I started a podcast โ Play Is the Work: The 1-to-5 Playbook. Real brain science about ages 1โ5, zero judgment, from a teacher with 25+ years in the room and a mom of three whoโs had applesauce in her hair. Episode 1 is live: what play actually builds in their brains, what it looks like at 1, 2, and 3โ5, and why the noisy toy is never the good one. ๐ง Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6v1PQOy6wSaNuJ8cSCRREf | Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/2bba3351-96ad-4aa5-a180-7497ac4c9bdf/play-is-the-work-the-1to5-playbook (Apple Podcasts coming soon!)
