[Xmca-l] Re: Fwd: Now available: Early Childhood in Focus on 'The Right to Play'

Thanks Mike!

Good timing: We just ended a great playworld conference here in Jönköping,
Sweden based on the concern addressed in Comment number 17.

I'll write the title of the conference below, in case any are interested,
and the symbolic though/play topic came up several times at the conference,
shaped by comments and readings that were posted on XMCA recently -- so
Monica and I will bring these responses to the issue back to XMCA as soon
as we catch our collective breath : ) .
