The Early Years Alliance's National Week of Play will run from Monday 29 June to Sunday 5 July this year.
A child’s imagination is their most powerful tool. It can turn a simple stick into a sword, a box into a castle, and a bedroom into the deepest reaches of outer space.
That’s why in support of the National Year of Reading, this year’s National Week of Play is all about the power of storytelling in the early years. Through a range of free resources, blogs and virtual events to both early years providers and families, you can explore the wonderful ways that books and stories can help feed children’s imaginations and prime them for play.
