My guest today is Mr. Tim Gill, a researcher and writer who explores the environments where children thrive and develop optimally. Tim examines how childhood has evolved throughout history and how different spaces have shaped—and continue to shape—children's growth.
What are the best environments for a rich and fulfilling childhood? Where do children play and learn, and how have these spaces changed over time? Which cities offer the healthiest environments for kids, and where do children spend their time? How did urban kindergartens come to be, and what triggered their development?
We’ll also explore how environmental changes influence human interaction and children’s relationships and how personal safety is connected to their ability to grow into independent and capable adults.
Tim consistently shares insights on these topics through his blog and advises those seeking to create high-quality environments that support meaningful and enriching childhood experiences.
