Episode 4: Building Confidence in Inclusive Environments
In this episode, we sit down with Claudine Mossberg, founder of The Outdoor Play Connection, to explore how needs-based approaches can foster truly inclusive spaces for children of all abilities. Claudine shares her inspiring journey in creating environments where every child feels seen, supported, and empowered to thrive. Together, we discuss the importance of rethinking traditional play structures, understanding individual needs, and designing inclusive opportunities that foster connection, growth and true belonging. Whether you're a parent, educator, or advocate, this episode offers valuable insights into building a world where all kids can play, learn, and belong.
