Play and Pedagogy Podcast

Today I introduce a creative prompt from the book "How to be an Explorer of the World" by the talented Keri Smith. Find 5 objects throughout your day today, and give them a fictional story. Attach a magical meaning to them. I found a handful of magical dirt, which animals on the ground are now pollinating all over the city. When it is placed in an area that has a high concentration of unhappiness, out sprouts lush gardens and rainbow benches, inviting people to sit on and connect. About the podcast: Something that all animals have in common is the intrinsic need to play. As we enter the world, we learn about ourselves, and our connection to this world through play. Play and Pedagogy is a podcast where we talk to all sorts of interesting humans who have a passion for using teaching or play as a way to inspire creative work, or encourage critical thinking.
