Children thrive in spaces designed for living and learning. For more than two decades Designs for Living and Learning has been a favorite resource among educators, caregivers, consultants, and college instructors, filled with practical ideas to design captivating environments that nurture children, families, and staff while supporting children's learning. If you wonder how to hold on to your dreams for creating beautiful, engaging early childhood environments even while facing an array of challenges, this book offers a way to think about your choices and a multitude of examples from educators in a variety of settings. This updated edition adds inspiring new photos and stories from the authors with contributions from a wide range of imaginative, determined educators in programs moving forward with their dreams as they negotiate uncertainty, stress, a regulatory move toward diminishing possibilities. These pages are filled with stirring words and visual examples of creativity and the wonder of childhood. At the same time the authors take up the hard questions of how to think about our work in the context of climate imperatives, fear, divisiveness, loss and displacement in our communities. As you digest this book, you'll find yourself nourished and your imagination itching to move into action.
