There have been many things that we as practitioners have noticed over the last two years. One of the most startling things we have seen is the lack of speech and language development in young children. This comes in the forms of social interactions to speech language and communication.
This is why we are bringing you a new cohort of the Virtual Nature School. To tackle these issues and the place of oracy in early years. And of course, we will embed this learning in nature-based outdoor learning, using Floorbooks to create an enriched learning environment.

In this episode we tackle the difficult topic of how to communicate with children who have questions about the situation in Ukraine. This is both a tough subject and yet an important one to address sensitively.
To help give you confidence in dealing with any questions the children in your care may have, I am inviting you to a webinar on the 7th of April at 6pm GMT.

Due to popular request we are returning to another of my books by revisiting "Fascination of Water".

In this episode we look at the very important issue of self-care.
How can we make sure that we look after ourselves sustainable if we don't prioritise our self-care, yet it's often one of the first things to slide when the pressure is on.

This week we turn our eyes to sustainability. While we think that sustainability is all about the environment, there are many facets to consider. In this episode we discuss social, economic and environmental sustainability.
We can all do something, every day to be more sustainable. It may be looking after yourself to become more socially and emotionally sustainable; it may be looking after your family's needs in an economically sustainable way or it could be redoubling our efforts we all go to to be more environmentally sustainable.
