SUMMARY:Libraries as Early Literacy Spaces
DESCRIPTION:Libraries have always been about access. But for children aged 3–6\, they can be something more: a place where literacy begins before a child can read a single word. Join us for an online session exploring how librarians can use picture books\, simple games\, and storytelling activities to build early literacy skills in every child who walks through the door. \nThis Workshop is designed for: \nSchool and community librarians\, educators\, and caregivers \nWhat to expect? \nA toolkit of actionable ideas the audience can use to promote early literacy.

SUMMARY:Make ECD Fit Into Life
DESCRIPTION:‘Make ECD Fit Into Life’ explores how we can design early childhood development in ways that work within the realities of family life\, rather than asking families to add more activities\, time or resources to their day. \nThrough four provocations\, the session will invite participants to rethink how one can approach ECD. Participants will explore how everyday routines\, relationships and objects can become opportunities for Talk\, Care and Play\, while questioning assumptions about caregivers\, parenting and fathers’ roles. \nThe session will be reflective\, participatory and practical\, with a focus on seeing and strengthening the learning already present in everyday life. \nWhat to expect? \n\nUnderstand how to make ECD fit into everyday family life rather than adding more activities or tasks.\nIdentify and question assumptions embedded in common parenting and ECD messages.\nPractise redesigning an ECD activity so that it can happen within an existing routine\, without adding extra time.\nReframe fathers as caregivers in their own right\, rather than as helpers or supporters of mothers.\nDevelop a lens for identifying Talk\, Care and Play opportunities in ordinary routines and objects.\n\nThis masterclass is designed for: \n\nCaregivers\nAnganwadi Workers\nPreschool educators\nNGOs\nEarly childhood professionals\nCurriculum designers\nGovernment stakeholders\nAnyone interested in children’s early development
