Play Sparks: Sticks

What possibilities can be found in something as simple as a stick? In this episode of @PlaySparks, Cathy and Tina explore the curiosity, joy, and endless possibilities that emerge when children encounter one of nature’s most wonderfully open-ended materials. Rather than asking “What can we make children do with sticks?” we wonder: "What can sticks invite children to discover through play?" From movement and imagination to sensory exploration, problem-solving, creativity, and connection with the natural world, we reflect on the many affordances hidden within this everyday material. One material. 100 possible stories. Endless possibilities. Let’s spark play.
