Raising Playful Tots Index

Welcome to the Raising Playful Tots Index !

Are you a new mum looking for play ideas? Work in childcare and want some resources to share with your colleagues and parents about making play fun? Run a mother and toddler group and looking for suggestions? Looking to make some changes in your play lifestyle gradually from people who have been there before you? An Early years educator who is just excited about play? Grandparent with children coming to stay? Parent curious about….*delete appropriate  Montessori/ structured together activities/Waldorf Steiner/ preschool/Literacy activities/unplugged/outdoor play etc and more and want to learn from the experts?

Then stop now pull up a chair and you are in for a treat. You have come to the right place!

When we look up a Decorators in Yellow Pages we get a huge listing. How do you pick the right type of Decorator? You soon build up a list of Decorators who do very different things. The painter who does a fine job of painting the outside of the house. The one who will paint and do touch up jobs. The children’s bedroom decorator who specialises in murals. The fine finishers… You get our point. Through a lot of trial and error and friends or perhaps Angies List you have a folder of Decorators a list you go to when you have a job. It’s not a closed folder. You add to it.

The RPTI is one such one-stop shop.

Complied in one place are bloggers who love Play. They promote Early childhood play with a variety of play activities and inspirational ideas for our under 8 children in one place.

Whether you are looking for new ideas, inspiration, things to do , babysitting tonight and need a helping hand, pop on over to the RPTI and enjoy the exciting play activities by parents and educators.

You will have a full play folder with a range of play activities from specialist to generalist. Waldorf play inspired to homeschooled, baby, toddler, preschool and School activities for you to dip into depending on what you are looking for.
