In a world that can feel harsh at times, how do we cultivate the space for compassion not only in our lives but our children's lives? 

In this article that I wrote for the Institute for Humane Education, I talk about the strategies that I use to create a space for conversation with my son.

Through play, observation, field trips, and more, the opportunities are endless for opening the door to critical thinking. 

I believe that in order to create a more just and humane world we
need to bring our children and students into the conversation and invite them to be part of the solution. I would love to hear what you are doing ​to create the space for conversation in order to help foster compassion and critical thinking. 

I hope you enjoy the read!
