They're Not Too Cool for Play

Engaging Older Children in Your Wraparound Setting

If you've ever felt like your older children are harder to engage, less interested in what's on offer, or that your environment just... doesn't quite work for them — this session is for you.

We'll be exploring:

→ What a truly play-rich environment looks like for older children (and why it's different from what works for younger ones)

→ How older children's needs, development, and social dynamics shape what good provision looks like

→ Practical activities and ideas you can take back and try straight away

→ Simple, low-cost changes to your environment and offer that make a real difference to engagement

This isn't about behaviour management or ticking boxes. It's about understanding what older children are actually looking for — and becoming the setting they don't want to leave.
