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
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 persisting (children)
Perseverance in children is acquired through various experiences. Think about the types of experiences children have in your centre. In what ways do you offer materials, space, and time for children to explore and try out their theories? In what ways do you participate alongside children as they persist in their explorations and play?
