We’re kicking off the Summer Rewind Series with some of your favorite past episodes—perfect for summer walks, long drives, or relaxing in the backyard. Even if you’ve heard them before, these conversations still hold so much value, and you just might hear something new now that you're in a different season of parenting.
Getting kids outside is truly magical. Fresh air can calm a fussy baby, support emotional regulation, and give you that much-needed reset during long parenting days. And when kids explore the outdoors without structured activities? The benefits multiply.
In this rewind episode, I’m joined by Allana Robinson—Registered Early Childhood Educator and Developmental Specialist—for a conversation all about the power of unstructured, independent outdoor play. We talk through the logistics (yes, including weather and safety), how to let go of over-structuring, and why outdoor exploration is so good for your child’s development. This one is a reminder that less really can be more when it comes to play.
