Oops... we had a print error, but you get to save $$

So, we discovered that our latest batch of Risky Play Cards has a print error! What to do, what to do? In the interest of sustainability - we aren't getting rid of them... they are still amazing. So, we are getting creative and adding a small sticker over the header on one of the cards. There - problem fixed. And, we're discounting this print run! 

Why did we create these cards?

Our Inspiration and Discussion Card sets have become a very popular resource for services, due to their high visual appeal and simple, informative format that encourages reflection and discussion between educators. 

This set explores the concept of Risky Play, through the lens of Ellen Sandseter's Categories of Risky Play. 

We have created these cards to inspire discussion, thought and reflection. 

 

What can you do with them? 

We've visited services that have hung theirs on a hook in the room, or in the staff room. You could also:

  • Make them available in your programming/documentation area
  • Work through one card at each team meeting - use them to spark discussion within the team
  • Use them to support conversations with families about risky play

What are the specifics?

This beautiful set of 12 high quality, gloss cards will inspire you to think deeply about children's risk taking in their play and what it means for them. Unpacking Sandseter's Categories of Risky Play, we share the what, the why and the how, and encourage educators to reflect on their practices and their environments. 

These highly visual cards include: 

  • Great Heights
  • High Speeds
  • Dangerous Elements
  • Dangerous Tools
  • Rough and Tumble Play
  • Disappearing/Getting Lost
  • Vicarious Play
  • Play with Impact

Each card features brilliant images from the early childhood sector

How are they sustainable?

Printed locally in Newcastle, NSW

  • Quality, durable materials designed to last
  • Packed in recycled, reusable, or sustainable packaging

Risky Play Cards

The Risky Play cards compliment the Play Scheme cards we purchased last year. The cards give good prompts for educators to use when writing learning stories. They are beautifully presented and bound for easy use and storage.

Thank you so very much. We are behind grateful that you love our Risky Play cards and they are providing extra support for your educators. Thank you

Risky play cards

These have been very beneficial. I originally purchased 4 sets (1 for each of the services I work at) however I am now going to purchase 1 per room for each service for the educators to use as well as for parents to observe the benefits of risky play.

Wow, thank you so much. We are so glad you are enjoying the card sets and they are helping your service in many ways.
