Ep4 Filling in the Gaps with Play

This week Julie and Philippa ponder when children and young people ‘regress’ in play, thinking about how this can ‘fill in early life gaps’. Pondering how important a playful nappy change can be to a baby and toddler. How unpredictable, inconsistent parenting can impact a child or young person and how they have a sense of the rhythm of life and how can play support the development of this. Pondering co-regulation and regulation, and how important regulation is to experience from the outside in first. Bruce Perry’s regulate, relate, Reason is reference by Julie and Philippa. 

Sarah Lloyd’s Building Under developed Sensory Systems work is referenced in relation to how babies develop from in utero.
