On this episode I am talking with Molly Bishop, playworker and owner of Navigation Play, a small business located in Williamsburg, Iowa. Molly organizes child-led play experiences, family events, kids classes and more while making play a priority in her community.

In addition to reviewing the importance of child-led play, Molly and I also discuss navigating hidden food allergens in play materials and how her programs strive to make a welcoming environment for anyone who wants to be involved. And now, let’s talk food allergies!

Lisa’s first children’s book, Be a Food Allergy Helper! is available online, almost everywhere that books are sold. Be a Food Allergy Helper! can help you feel more confident starting (or continuing) the conversation about food allergies with your family or classroom. And if you buy a digital download during the month of May, one hardcover book will be donated to the public library of your choice (within the continental United States). Learn more.
