I’ve just read over 50 INCREDIBLE letters from 2 P4 classes requesting new play resources and telling me why they ‘strongly’ believe in the importance of play. I have noted 50 unique quotes from them, and I couldn’t choose just one favourite, so here is a thread…

So great to see this! 👏
Children have the right to play (UNCRC art 31). And they can express exactly why it’s important to them (see 🧵👇).
UN Committee on the Rights of the Child has commented extensively on the right to play. https://t.co/3xzuuuiLtF
@BMonstersBooks Absolutely! With suggestions such as asking for donations, looking in charity shops and even asking at the local recycling centre!! I’d have been convinced without the letters though, they were a huge bonus!
I could go on, but I won’t. These amazing kids are the reason why I’m such an advocate for play, and these quotes will stop me from ever doubting it’s importance!!
