Early childhood teacher Jenna Jabbour shares some great risky play ideas she uses when teaching.

Kids and nails, kids and darts, kids and knives – be honest, did you just cringe three times over? It’s normal, and it’s the reaction I get from most parents when they hear about the activities we have planned at childcare. The most common phrase I hear is, “Oh no, kids can’t do that”. I beg to differ. Kids can do that, and should be doing all these things. It is great for their fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and very importantly, these risks help them learn.

We asked Ellie and Alyssa from over at Little Opinions to rate their favourite educational toys for us. Their mum Karyn shares the verdict…

When discussing with my girls about their favourite educational toy, they kept telling me they had none. I loved this answer, as they have plenty of educational toys, they just don’t realise they are learning – they are just fun toys to play with.

Brijesh from Switched On Kids shares some great tips on how you can use your time better when it comes to supporting your child’s education.
