Change-Makers are
test-takers
“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” Albert Einstein
We need to free children from educational systems that use the same ineffective and often harmful practices over and over again, expecting different results. Children have a right to a more expansive and diverse education that provides rich opportunities for them to grow into confident adults, able to build healthy relationships and use the power of their imagination – their ability to imagine what is not yet, but can be – to envision and make a better world.
Together we can do this!
Play-Makers are Change-Makers
OUR MISSION
To collaborate with parents and caregivers, teachers, and members of community organizations to bring more Play-Making, hope and joy into their own and their children’s lives. Together we will:
- Honor the important work you are already doing with children as a point of action.
- Cultivate a deep understanding of what Play-Making is and the central role it has in children’s healthy social, emotional, physical and intellectual development.
- Free adults to create a culture of Play-Making in their families, classrooms, and community organizations with ideas they can put into action NOW.
Play-Making is a right not a privilege
A Play-Maker’s Play-Book
This ever-changing, multi-media Play-Book is at the center of our work with parents and caregivers, teachers, and members of community organizations. We use our book to help others build a culture of Play-Making in their work with children.
