PEDAL’s Projects

We’re making new discoveries about the value and impacts of play on babies, children, young people, families, schools, and communities. Through our projects, we’re developing play-filled ways to support children’s learning and development.

Play in early relationships

We're developing playful ways to help lay the best foundation possible for babies and children across the globe.

Play and health

We're exploring the power of play in healthcare contexts and supporting both children's physical and mental health.

Play and learning in schools

We're supporting educators to use evidence-informed playful approaches to learning in their teaching.

Play, communication, and neurodiversity

We're investigating the role of play in language and communication with a focus on neurodiversity.

Play and Policy

We work to ensure that knowledge from research is mobilised to help policy makers to improve children’s lives and life chances.
