SUMMARY:Launch of ‘The Playbook of Play’
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special gathering as we mark the launch of ‘The Playbook of Play’ with Rohini Nilekani—a moment to pause\, reflect\, and reconnect with the true spirit of childhood. \nThis is not just a book launch. It’s an invitation to rethink how we see play. \nThrough this conversation\, we explore: \n\nSimple\, age-wise ways to understand play\nVisual tools to observe children’s growth and milestones\nEasy-to-use activity ideas for everyday moments\nThoughtful approaches to both indoor and outdoor play\n\nAnd yet\, at its heart\, this playbook carries a powerful reminder:play does not need instructions. \nChildren already know how to play.They learn the most when they are free to explore\, imagine\, and simply be. \nFor caregivers\, educators\, and anyone who cares about childhood\,this is also a moment to breathe a little easierto trust that joy\, learning\, and growth are already unfolding through play.
