Play matters more than it ever did

Coronavirus has changed everything, including our children’s normal routines and access to their usual play environments. 

The Play matters more than it ever did information sheet has been designed by Playboard Northern Ireland in cooperation with the Department of Education’s Play Matters project. It aims to assist teachers, playworkers, parents and those offering care to children in these challenging times, to consider how they might provide quality play opportunities and experiences.
