Play Makes Sense | The Play Schemas Collective

Kia ora, Hello! I’m Ruth Vercoe, a teacher-turned-mum, here on a mission to Demystify Child’s Play through understanding Play Schemas.

If you’ve ever found yourself asking, 'Why is my child doing that?'—whether it’s throwing their soft toys, hiding stones around the house, or lining up their crayons —then you’re in the right place, and certainly not alone.

Here, we’ll explore the magic of play through the lens of play schemas—those hidden repeated patterns in your child’s behaviour that hold the key to unlocking more meaningful play and connection.

Join me each week as we dive into playful insights that will help you bring more joy, connection and understanding into your parenting journey. 

Want to get in touch? I would love to hear from you!
