Flash cards

Flash cards are an excellent communication tool in early childhood education. They can help children explore concepts through visual communication, which makes them suitable for all age and ability groups. Flash cards can even feature Braille or other forms of tactile communication.

Educators should ensure they are not using cards for teacher-directed lessons. Let children take the lead in how they are used. Let the play be open ended and unconventional. Children will invent their own games.

The Interest Forest

The Interest Forest was created by a small team of Australian early childhood teachers. We believe in less paperwork and more play.

We have collected hundreds of children's interests, linked to the EYLF, to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of your program. We hope you enjoy exploring our Forest of interest topics.

Acknowledgement

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and thank them for caring for our land, coastlines and waterways.

We pay our respect to their Elders past and present with extended respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
