Here are a few of my favorite things

PictureA Treasure Map by Tao, age 4

  • Corner of the Sky, my progressive preschool in Ithaca, NY. Progressive, in this sense, refers to the nature of our thinking; allowing for changes as they arise, both in our approaches to teaching and in the directions of our day.
  • let the children play, a fabulous reference for parents and educators advocating for the ever-important Play.
  • Teacher Tom, a Seattle early childhood educator also teaching in a progressive play-based environment.
  • earthplay design, a great resource for outdoor play spaces by my friend Rusty Keeler. His new book, Seasons of Play has an entire chapter about outdoor play at Corner of the Sky.
  • There's a Book For That, a primary teacher in Vancouver, B.C., with an appetite for children's literature. What's not to love.
