SUMMARY:VIC/TAS WEBINAR: Nature Play and Child Wellbeing
DESCRIPTION:Join us in celebration of Children’s Week 2024 as we host a webinar exploring the benefits of Nature Play and the critical role it plays in supporting children’s social and emotional wellbeing.  Hear from Dr Kristel Alla and Dr Mandy Truong from the Australian Institute of Family Studies as they discuss their recently released paper ‘Nature Play and Child Wellbeing’ and examine what the research evidence says about the different types of contacts with nature that promote child wellbeing.  With Nature Play being at the forefront of many contemporary developments\, this event is a must attend for anyone involved in the planning and design of public playspaces.  								\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n									 								\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n									‘Nature play and child wellbeing’ Paper OverviewThis resource summarises what the research evidence says about the different types of contacts with nature (‘nature contacts’) that promote child wellbeing. It describes a common type of nature contact for young children\, ‘nature play’\, and summarises the evidence for the benefits of nature play and nature contact for young children. It also provides some considerations for practitioners and other professionals working with young children. The term ‘nature play’ in this resource refers both to nature contact more broadly (i.e. the different ways children connect with nature) and more specifically to child-led\, unstructured play activities in nature. 								\n				\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n				\n				\n					Meet the Authors and our Presenters 				\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n									Dr Mandy Truong Research Fellow\, Australian Institute of Family Studies 								\n				\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n									Dr Kristel Alla  Senior Researcher\, Australian Institute of Family Studies 								\n				\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n				\n				\n									Children’s Week is a national celebration.
