I am a writer, editor and social entrepreneur. As a parent who has travelled in the Middle East, I am inspired by Susan Abulhawa’s vision of playgrounds as ‘a special place and refuge’ for young Palestinians to play.
At both the Phoenix School and the Modern Childhood School, our students participated in craft workshops to create Ramadan decorations
Play, while it cannot change the external realities of children’s lives, can be a vehicle for children to explore and enjoy their differences and similarities and to create, even for a brief time, a more just world where everyone is an equal and valued participant.
