Welcome Back to Season 2 of the Treasure Time Podcast!
Welcome back treasured listeners to the Treasure Time podcast. Your host Sophia Giblin shares a special trailer for the relaunch of the Treasure Time podcast. This show for parents helps you use the power of play in relationships to build happier, healthier family lives. You may remember the Treasure Time podcast from back in 2020, when Sophia and Nicole brought you bite-sized tips during the early pandemic to support children’s wellbeing while homeschooling. The podcast is now back after a break, with a brand new format and 10 amazing episodes launching on December 13th. This season, Sophia will be talking to special guests about what children really need in order to thrive. They’ll look at the role of environment, relationships, brain development, and playful ways to help kids overcome challenges. Kicking off this season, 3 episodes drop on December 14th: with two episodes from Sophia sharing her experiences as a play therapist, with tips on helping kids with fears and anxieties. She’ll also discuss being a playful role model and setting our own 'play standards'. The third episode features an exclusive interview with Ella’s Kitchen founder Paul Lindley on his new book “Raising the Nation.” This book offers a manifesto for prioritizing child-centered policies to create a better future. Sophia contributed an essay to the book with a 'big idea' for government to prioritise child-led play at home between parents and children when they first join school. Find out more by tuning into the episode this week. Additional holiday episodes will cover keeping the magic of Christmas while meeting children’s needs. Sophia will be joined by play therapist Joseph Atkinson and Olga from The Caring Instinct for a lively discussion on the elf on the shelf, Santa Claus and more. Into the new year, incredible guests are lined up to challenge thinking and provide new perspectives on meeting kids’ needs in the home and beyond. Please do subscribe to the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and wherever you get podcasts. New episodes will drop every Wednesday. They also greatly appreciate 5 star ratings and reviews on Apple to reach more parents. Get ready to think differently as we treasure the time with our kids!
