In the fast-paced world of early childhood education, time often feels like the one thing we never have enough of. In this webinar we’ll pause, breathe, and consider the deep impact of time on teaching and learning outdoors.

Together, we'll examine essential questions: Are we giving children the time they need to play, notice, fail and try again, build relationships, be still, and just be? How does our own relationship to time—whether we’re clock watchers or flow followers—influence our work and our children’s experiences?

This webinar will be held via Zoom. (We’ll send you the recording if you can’t attend live!) And whether you attend live or view the recording, we’ll send you a certificate for 1 hour of attendance.* 

*Please note, licensing requirements for early childhood educators vary significantly, so we cannot guarantee this time will be accepted for your requirements. We recommend that you contact your certifying or state licensing agency for clarification.
