Monthly Musings - December 2024

December 14, 2024

In response to being asked about how to go deeper with one’s practice with children, we offer these monthly musings as invitations for you. You might take the invitation up

  • as an individual or with your team.
  • at monthly staff meetings.
  • to provoke conversations when feeling stuck.

The opportunities are endless.

We will pose these musings monthly but use them as you feel moved to. You might spend more than a month with one question. Or you might revisit a question at a later time. Each time you visit or revisit a question, new possibilities emerge.

I/ we are Caring (educator)

Think about how you organize daily care routines. In what ways do the routines reflect the children in your care? In what ways do you offer time for children to participate in caring routines with others and the environment? In what ways are your routines flexible and responsive to children’s uniqueness and social interactions?
