About the author:

In my research I aim to understand children’s object-oriented play, its relation to cognitive development, and how this activity can best be guided by childhood educators.

What I want to achieve:

By demonstrating the importance of play through science, I hope to secure a place for play within the practice of early childhood education.

My previous positions:

Previously, I worked as a childhood educator in kindergarten and daycare.
