In this special one-year anniversary episode of Little Big Ideas, Anne Marie and Lorrie reflect on a year of ideas that have shaped how they think, teach, and show up, in their work and at home with their families.

What themes resurface when you spend a year in conversation with early childhood education's most thoughtful practitioners? What does it take to build a classroom, and a life, around democracy rather than conformity? And what have Anne Marie and Lorrie learned about themselves along the way?

They trace the threads woven through every episode this year: the rights of children, care as something we practice rather than feel, inclusion in the classroom and what it might look like to build with children's ideas rather than just around them.

Join us as they explore some of these conversations further and celebrate the beautiful folks who have chatted with them on the pod so far.

Thank you to everyone who's been listening from the beginning or who have joined more recently, sharing episodes in team meetings, and bringing these ideas into your own communities.
