Don’t Shut It Down: Let Curiosity Lead the Way
Loading player...
In this episode, Lauren shares how small moments — a child asking a question, noticing something new, making a surprising connection — can be powerful opportunities for learning. Too often, we unintentionally shut these moments down with a quick “not now” or “that’s wrong.”
Lauren unpacks how teachers and parents can instead pause, lean in, and let curiosity unfold. Through stories from the classroom and everyday life, she shows how following a child’s spark of interest can build confidence, focus, and a real love of learning. It’s not about always having the right answers — it’s about helping kids stay open, engaged, and eager to explore.
