episode 3: kelsey

LIVE from the porch of Morgan’s caboose, we spoke with Kelsey Langley, a lion-hearted playworker running KOOP Adventure Playground in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, USA.

Kelsey describes what “lights her up” in playwork. We also talk about taking it slow.

A FEW THINGS WE MENTIONED:

  • Follow KOOP on instagram @koopadventureplay or read more at Koopadventureplay.org.

  • What is a Play Frame? “The process of play is ‘contained’ by the play frame. The play frame can be a material boundary that keeps the play intact;  the rules of the game or understanding between the participants.  A frame can be many things – a table, a playground or something broader….” Like Chocolate Chunk Ice Cream Shop! via Children's Scrapstore

Music from the episode: The Provisions by K4 via Blue Dot Sessions.

Our theme song is Happiness Is by Podington Bear.
