OPAL - Event for parents: Play every day!
2024-11-13
Next week, on Wednesday 13th November, OPAL are holding a short webinar for parents to talk about the power of play and help them make play part of every day for their child.
At the event, OPAL Director Michael Follett will explore some of the key benefits of play, look at how playwork theory can support parents, and share his top tips for play at home.
Play for every child
This event is part of OPAL’s commitment to making play part of every child’s life and is fundraising to support Project Play, a wonderful organisation that provides safe spaces to play for displaced children in Northern France.
This webinar is free to attend, but OPAL encourage participants to make a suggested donation of £10 to Project Play’s fundraiser, which is being match funded by OPAL CIC.
