    Loose Parts Voices from NAEYC!
    2023/12/12
    I brought a RØDE Reporter microphone to the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) conference and asked people about loose parts! They could share anything they wanted—a thought, a tip, a frustration, a product, etc. It was so great to see and meet all of you! Check it out! I’ve tried to link what I can below. Hear voices from the following (and more!): Kaplan Early Learning—Check out the Loose Parts STEM kits I was part of designing!  Merry Lea Environmental Learning Center (check out our Master of Arts in Environmental Education—I direct this!)
