Join Stephanie Bennett from The Curiosity Approach for a session packed with practical strategies to build co-operation, independence, and shared responsibility in your early learning environment.

Hands up if transitions in your setting look less like a calm, purposeful shift and more like a small hurricane? You're not alone.

For many early childhood educators and teachers, transitions are one of the trickiest parts of the day. Children disengage, resist, melt down, or simply disappear. Approached thoughtfully, though, these moments hold real potential not just for a smoother day, but for building children's independence, sense of ownership, and a genuine culture of care in your room.

In this session, Stephanie shares practical, tried-and-tested strategies for transforming transitions from the ground up strategies you can put into practice the very next day.

Drawing on the principles of The Curiosity Approach: slowing down, simplifying, and creating spaces children truly connect with Stephanie explores how the way we set up, curate, and care for our environments directly shapes how children (and adults!) feel when it's time to move from one moment to the next.

Presented By

Stephanie Bennett - The Curiosity Approach

Webinar Duration

Approximately 45 minutes

Skill Level

Suitable for beginner to experienced educators and ECT’S

What will you learn?

What we'll explore together:
  • Why transitions become a battleground and what's really going on for children beneath the resistance
  • How environment design shapes children's relationship with change and movement throughout the day
  • The power of less: simplifying your space to transform the transition experience
  • Practical, Curiosity Approach-inspired strategies for calm, connected transitions
  • How to build a culture of genuine care, ownership, and pride in your learning environment

This isn't about rigid routines or the clock dictating every move. It's about helping children develop a real and meaningful relationship with their day - one that makes moving from one moment to the next feel natural, not forced.

What others said about this webinar:

how honest and practical the whole webinar was. Although I am currently facing lazy and uninspired educators in my team I know I can make a difference in children's lives.
