Table Talk Tidbit: What Does Laughter Have to Do with Belonging, Connection and Retention?
In this episode we explore laughter as a pedagogy — not as something extra, but as something essential.
Laughter builds connection.
Laughter regulates nervous systems.
Laughter creates belonging.
Inspired by Deb Curtis’ Really Seeing Children and Nina Spencer’s Getting Passion Out of Your Profession, this episode invites us to notice laughter as a glimmer — a moment of joy, safety, and shared humanity in our early learning spaces.
What do children find funny?
What happens when we pause to really see those moments?
And how might protecting our sense of humour help us stay passionate, connected, and well in this profession?
Because being a committed educator doesn’t mean being serious all the time.
It means being present.
Playful.
And willing to laugh alongside children.
🎧 Listen now and join us in looking for the glimmers.
