Today on the podcast, we're joined by two influential figures in early childhood education: Laura Stone from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), and Jenae Tien Jenkins, an award-winning producer, author, and social entrepreneur. Laura spearheads ABC Kids Early Education, focusing on curriculum-aligned resources. Jenae, through Expand Your Library, champions allyship and challenges cultural stereotypes. This episode delves into their exciting collaboration to create the Allies and Friends Toolkit, an initiative centered around allyship in the early years.
The conversation will explore:
- The vital concept of allyship in early childhood education.
- The core themes of allyship in the early years - cultural diversity, fostering kindness, and growing together.
- The ‘Allies and Friends Toolkit’, a resource developed to support educators in integrating allyship into play-based learning.
