The instructor shared important research regarding the importance of play to all domains of child development, including how play affects language acquisition as well as academic skills. Her presentation style was dynamic so it kept my interest throughout the session. I am excited to share this information with my colleagues and supervisors.

This is honestly one of the BEST courses I have ever taken. It might be because it lands in my sweet spot - child-led play is learning in preschool resulting in better academic skills at older ages!. But, I think this was my favorite course because Angie Neal is incredibly knowledgeable on this subject. She is pragmatic and aims for her audience to carry this message forward to students, parents, education coworkers, and administrators by empowering us through EVP. Play's essential & rewarding!
