Ayelet sits down with Wendi McKenna, a pediatric physical therapist, family coach, and founder of the website Move, Play, Grow. Ayelet and Wendi's discussion centers around the fact that young children learn through movement. Even though our culture often places a strong focus on cognitive and social/emotional development, these areas are most efficiently addressed through movement! The episode also covers Wendi's journey into providing education for new parents (and her strong belief in the power of play), the reasons why movement is so important for infants and toddlers, Wendi's best tips for incorporating more movement and play experiences into our lives with our young children, and her favorite resources for more - and deeper - information about the benefits of movement and play, and how these impact learning. This episode was recorded live and followed by a Q&A Workshop with members of the SIW Community LAB.
