Let's Play!
The Secret Kindergarten Radio Show for Young Children Ep. 17

In this episode Gino uses the Page of Wands as a guide for the show. The Page of Wands gets immersed in play and exploration. She says “I’ll just see where it goes”. There is potential for this message to be misunderstood. The lovey-dovey new age community might be encouraged to flutter about aimlessly in the pursuit of pleasure, without any goals or higher purpose. This is the paradox where there is the neglected child inside us who never got the chance (or had little opportunity) to just get lost in play for the sake of play. Play and exploration, following the muse, is where the young child develops a sense of self, self-esteem, purpose and all the qualities required for goal-setting and achievement later in life. Parents and caregivers can observe play preferences and extend on these play-patterns through “curation” of the play environment. This is true early childhood education, a scaffolding approach to free-play. The only indoctrination that is happening is an indoctrination into the child becoming the self.
