We also believe that Gender Stereotypes play some part in a number of issues that we are wrestling with as a society, and believe that reducing gender stereotypes, can be part of the solution. 2/4

In our book we describe the man box which we were introduced to by Paul Kivel @KaufmanWrites & @TonyPorterACTM (watch their @TEDTalks!) Here's a version of gender boxes for children, showing how we teach children what society expects of them & how this limits them. #Stereotypes

Bristol schools are on a very exciting journey to make learning in Year 1 developmentally appropriate when it is needed more than ever. Go Bristol!

My copy of this new book arrived, that I have a chapter in. Very proud to have a chapter in this book for professionals who know only too well the extent & impact of male violence against women, children & marginalised men #VAWG #IWD2021 #feminism

Let’s remember that outdoor play is for girls and women too. It’s important for their development. Never again do I want to hear: β€œthe boys in the class really need to be outside”. All children need quality outdoor play regardless of their sex. #ChooseToChallenge #IWD2021

As children return to school next week, what's missing is a policy for 4-14s to have time& space for collaborative free play overseen but not controlled by adults. This was a natural β€˜given’ throughout human history until recently& key for phys&mental health

Children will have had such different experiences during lockdown. Large numbers are said to have not been outside during this time. Unstructured active play is vital now more than ever to support both healthy physical and emotional development #letthemplay #playoutside
