E107. How Play Supports Your Childs Development

As I mum, I completely understand the want to play with your little one in a way that will help them to learn, thrive and meet all their developmental milestones as they grow but often, we end up in a sea of toys that overwhelms us all. This week’s guest is Jessica Rolph, Jessica is the Cofounder and CEO of Lovevery and has so much wisdom around play and development.  Did you know 90% of your child’s brain structure is developed by age 5?  Today’s episode is brought to you by Lovevery, maker of stage-based Play Kits for ages 0-4. The Play Kits by Lovevery aren't just boxes of toys – each item is carefully designed by child development experts to be exactly what your child needs. As parents, we can help our children build brain connections in the early years through developmental play.  Each Play Kit comes with a Play Guide chock full of expert guidance, developmental information, and fun play ideas. Lovevery did all the research on what’s best for your child’s developing brain, so you don’t have to.  Just for Midwife Pip listeners:  o   Use code PIP20 for £20 off a new Play Kits Subscription at lovevery.co.uk  o   That’s code PIP20 for £20 off a new Play Kits Subscription - £10 off your first Play Kit and £10 off your second o   Terms and conditions apply: https://lovevery.co.uk/pages/help  I hope you enjoyed listening.
