The Playwork Primer
A wonderful introduction to playwork as well as some key concepts and phrases. It also provides an overview of the play types as identified by Bob Hughes as well as tons of resources & notes at the end. It might only be 20 some-odd pages, but for a small little book, it packs a punch! #playwork #DAP #play #teaching #learning
