In 1997, I first raised this issue in 'Snails live in houses too: Environmental education for the early years' (Elliott & Emmett). It is somewhat concerning that almost two decades later this issue persists. So, again I am questioning: Why do educators use 'food for play'? | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Every Child, 21(3), p. 14-15 | Publisher: | Early Childhood Australia Inc | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1322-0659 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 130102 Early Childhood Education (excl.
