In this workshop, referencing and discussing videos and photographs, we will examine and discuss the many ways environment can influence behaviour in an infant and toddler program setting. Together we will explore philosophies and consider ideas of not only physical, but also Temporal and Chronological space, and how these may impact children and educators interactions.
