Responding to the urgent needs presented by lockdown and the closure of stay & play groups Play Build Play CIC was founded in order to bring early years sensory play resources and parental support to vulnerable families remotely via their own materials blocks and weekly zoom sessions.
Backed up by over 15 years of collective experience working with early years children and families to build amazing spaces, we could readily see the impact on families with babies born into Lockdown was having. Working remotely, stuck in different parts of the country, we made special material block sets, and delivered securely to two local groups of family’s doors before meeting everyone online. Each week we explored different ways in which to use the blocks and the house around us to explore your senses and play with your baby. Miraculously, we were able to hold our final session in person, outdoors. Where we revelled in being able to socialise and spend time together within our amazing shared sensory environment.
