Magic Places and The Sacred Urge to Play, written by Pennie Brownlee
“Play is the only way the highest intelligence of humankind can unfold”
Joseph Chilton Pearce
Together, these two books cover ‘the why and the how’ of children’s creative play for teachers and for parents. As well as the practical suggestions on developmental stages and how to set an inviting environment, you will find helpful descriptions of the actual processes and processing that happens for children as they experience their world and use their processing to unfold their intelligences and imagination. When we truly ‘get’ the elegance of creative learning, and set up for it, teaching and learning becomes so much more effective and pleasurable.
“Creativity is putting your imagination to work. It is applied imagination.”
Sir Ken Robinson

The Sacred Urge to Play
Unfolding your child's intelligence, imagination, creativity and joy for life
A guide book to play for parents and teachers of young children from 0-7.
The living and learning that happen through play offers each child their best chance for health, happiness, and success in education and living - both now and in the future. Study after study shows that leaving formal cognitively-based learning until after the brain has laid down the foundations required for abstract learning gives our children a ‘head’ start.
