The Art of Play and Wonderment is an early childhood education conference designed to provide a space for educators, administrators, students, professors, and researchers to gather and reflect upon, celebrate, and share what we bring — and wish to bring — to our early childhood classrooms, professional practice, and research. In particular, we examine how play, joy, inquiry, and wonderment impact and inspire meaningful teaching and learning. The 5th annual conference, taking place Saturday, April 13, 2024 at Corlears School in partnership with Brooklyn College's Early Childhood Center, will be centered on the theme Fostering Belonging. All workshops will be eligible for PD credit through The Aspire Registry. Breakfast, lunch, and refreshments are included, and a student discount is available. Since its inception, conference programming has been designed by Colleen Goddard, PhD, Early Childhood Division Director at Corlears School, alongside Jacqueline Shannon, Associate Professor and Chair of the Early Childhood Education/Art Education department at Brooklyn College. Joining us to keynote is Scott G. Eberle, Ph.D., a renowned educator and author formerly the Vice President of The Strong Museum of Play (1989–2017) and editor of the American Journal of Play (2009–2017). For any questions, you can reach the team at wonderment@corlearsschool.org.
