🙋‍♀️ oh hi! Would love an add here!

Love how they will fact check certain posts but not others………👀

I’ve been considering organising a big outdoor play day and putting letters through doors to invite kids and grandkids out to play, and parents out to share their favourite street games from their youth with the kids.

That is something really important. I know my kids are the only kids in our cul de sac outside playing when I know there are other kids that live in the street. It’s sad for my kids too as I have such fond memories of getting outside with kids on our street at playing for hours.

So interesting and feeding off what @ianwaites.bsky.social says below, has there been a subconscious shift towards our views of ‘street’ play as being only something that happens in more deprived areas. If so that needs to be addressed alongside play deprivation.

Never heard it quite put that way- but love it! My second child definitely launched me from allowing and supporting risky play, to ‘benign neglect’. It’s purely a case of I can’t stop her so I’ll just leave her to it!

Oh the title and cover look equally fabulous!

Oh would love to join the list!
