🔹Early Childhood Development🔹⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🔹Early Childhood Development🔹⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We know from recent studies that the first 7 years of a child’s life do hold an important part of their development, but your child’s fate isn’t sealed on their 8th birthday.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Providing our kiddos with a safe and loving environment to explore their world through play is one for us to help nurture our child's natural development.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🔹Growing with the pikler🔹⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So many people ask if the pikler is something older kiddos can use and my answer is why not?!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Pikler triangle can be used for children 6 months through 5 or 6 years old (and beyond). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can introduce the Pikler triangle as your child starts pulling up. They can start with the lowest rung and explore it as they grow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Eventually, they will naturally start climbing up rungs and using the ramp to climb or slide down. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Older children can put the plank between two Pikler triangles and use it to help them learn to balance. They can jump off, use the climber within an obstacle course, send trucks or balls rolling down the slide....bottom line. Kids of all ages will find a way to use a pikler because it's so open ended.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Pikler Triangle grows with your child offering them new ways of playing with it at each stage of their development. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🔹Does any of this sound familiar?🔹⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻Your child is constantly asking you to play because they don't like playing independently.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻You struggle to find toys that will engage your child for an extended period of time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻Your child complains about being bored even though you have a house full of toys.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻You are overwhelmed by the sheer amount of stuff your children have.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻You don't even know where to begin organizing your toys and play space.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻You wish your children would just "go play."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My purposeful play space e-course is designed to teach you how to create a space for your children that invites them to play in ways that are more engaging, purposeful and independent.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
