Registration deadline is Monday, January 12, 2026, at 3:00 pm. Discover the power of play through the lens of Lisa Murphy on Play: The Foundation of Children’s Learning. These sessions explore how child-led, hands-on experiences support all areas of development for every child, with special attention to children with disabilities in early childhood inclusive settings. Educators will examine strategies for adapting environments, materials, and routines so that the “7 Things” every child needs daily are accessible to all learners. Participants will reflect on their own practices and gain tools to create inclusive, equitable, and playful classrooms that promote growth, belonging, and meaningful participation for children of all abilities.

Note: Approximately three weeks before the event, registrants will receive an email to confirm receipt of their registration request and important instructions that should be viewed prior to the day of the session.
