Photography offers young children a joyful and expressive way to build relationships with place and community. Placing a camera in their hands becomes an invitation to notice deeply, linger with curiosity, and form meaningful connections with the natural world. Through their images of blossoms, raindrops, waterways, and quiet movements in the landscape, we see photography become a language of belonging. As Ann Pelo describes, children develop a sure and sweet knowledge of earth, air, and sky. This webinar explores practical strategies for supporting children as they take photographs and guides educators through editing, printing, framing, and curating their images for exhibition. You will discover how photography fosters curiosity, creativity, and connection while strengthening children’s confidence, agency, and sense of place. Their images become powerful tools for storytelling, reflection, and dialogue.

Grow your practice as you:
• Support children to use photography as a creative and relational language.
• Curate images in ways that highlight children’s ways of seeing and belonging.
• Create photography experiences that nurture curiosity, agency, and connection to place.
