In this episode of 'Pondering Play and Therapy', host Philippa interviews Greg, an author and child advocate from 'Can I Go and Play Now?'. Greg talks about his journey from working in a scrap store to becoming a passionate advocate for play and autonomy in children. He shares his experiences and methods for helping teachers and adults connect with their inner child and incorporate more play into education. The conversation covers the importance of unstructured, imaginative play, the impact of political and educational policies on childhood, and the need to create more opportunities for free play. With a focus on the idea that play is an intrinsic part of who we are, Greg emphasises the importance of reconnecting with our sense of playfulness, both for personal well-being and for nurturing children's development.
