Reconsidering tiny critters away from anthropomorphic frameworks, and taking seriously their vital contributions to world-making. We discuss the importance of making visible the imperative for adults to unlearn and relearn, taking their lead from children and attuning to the generative potentials that surface when hierarchies (human and non-human) are dismantled.

Making Odd Kin is a research and development pilot project that takes a novel approach to re-thinking relationships to the environment by investigating how important multispecies flourishing is to all of us. Underpinned by philosophically-informed childhood research, the project involves working in close partnership with teachers by tapping into work already underway in Reception classes. &nbsp;The arts-based processes involved in the project recognise the capacities that children have to tell fresh and insightful stories. The project will culminate in the production of a children’s picturebook, created with local children&nbsp;
