PlayFutures
PlayFutures is a global by-invitation research and innovation community where participants can collaborate, interact in activities, share strategies and deepen their understanding of learning through play.
The 2017 LEGO Foundation Partner Event was an opportunity for our partners to gather in Billund, Denmark. For two days we discussed and engaged in playful, hands-on workshop focused on learning through play and the holistic skills set children need.
