Today I was incredibly fortunate to able to sit down with Ellen Sandseter an academic and Professor at Queen Maud University College of Early Childhood Education in Trondheim, Norway. She also happens to be a person who makes me star struck and it was a huge honour to have her on the show. This conversation really sets the foundations for anyone new to Forest School or risky play and it was great to explore other avenues with Ellen on the episode. She’ll be someone I look forward to getting back on the podcast and exploring ideas further with.

The conversation was full of firsts for me from a party outside intruding onto our conversation to a cat taking the limelight. None the less we were finally able to get it done. The conversation was as inspiring and thought provoking as ever with discussions around transition into motherhood and it’s complications. The role of the outdoors in a child’s upbringing , maintaining optimal mental healthy hygiene and the importance of risk alongside various other questions that were pertinent to ask as certain things arose in the conversation.
