Dirt Doesn't Hurt

An early years forum looking at mental health in the early years.

Launch of the "Dirt Doesn't Hurt" resource.


Enabling children to experience natural play, independently



How do we enable families to give their children more opportunities for independent, outdoor, creative, messy play?
How do we support them to let their children build confidence, take educated risks, and become resilient?
How can we pass this information on to parents, and model these behaviours in our settings – bringing our communities onside


Presenters: Kim Coulter, Doug Fargher, Vanessa Wiggenraad, Leigh Bartlett
