This is a podcast about playful learning.
Children learn best while playing, it’s when they are most receptive to their environment. From playgrounds to immersive technology, we talk about all things fun and how they can be mediums for joyful learning.
Hosts: Jyoti Arora (Not a Bot), Pooja Rai (Anthill creations), Anup Bishnoi (Not a Bot)
Anthill creates playgrounds using sustainable material to bring back play into children’s lives. Not a Bot makes games and immersive experiences to make learning joyful.
We come together to talk about learning for curiosity and how play (in any form) is the best way to do it. Our conversations will explore play as a way of life, as a necessity not an accessory. We also discuss the use of games and technology in play-based learning.

Storytelling can transform Learning
Is storytelling the missing ingredient in taking classroom learning to the next level?
We chat with Meera, an artist and storyteller, about the way stories build an emotional connection and can be a powerful medium for learning complex concepts.
Little ones are universally introduced to concepts new to them by way of stories, but as kids start growing up, storytelling slowly falls by the wayside, and learning takes on a more dry and fact-based existence.
We figure out why that happens, and counter the myth that stories only work for teaching simple concepts.
Listen in and share your thoughts and experiences about storytelling with us! -

Technology and screen-time are often considered bad for healthy child development. We talk about that perspective, as well as how to do it right instead.
Our special guest, John Bamberg, Mathematician and Math Educator at the University of Western Australia, joins us with insightful experiences as a father and educator.
