Play with Purpose - Turn Everyday Moments into Learning

In a world that pushes parents to do more, buy more, and be more — Play with Purpose invites you to slow down, tune in, and rediscover the magic in simple, everyday moments with your child.

Written by a qualified childcare educator, soon-to-be mum, and online business owner passionate about empowering parents, this gentle and inspiring guide explores how to turn play into a powerful tool for connection, development, and confidence — without the overwhelm or pressure to be perfect.

Through ten soulful chapters and practical, developmentally supportive prompts, Rae Dunworth helps you:

• Let go of the idea of “perfect play”
• Understand your child’s needs at every stage
• Build a playful environment that sparks imagination
• Create deeper bonds through everyday connection
• Embrace your role as enough, just as you are

Whether you’re a first-time parent or juggling multiple little ones, Play with Purpose will remind you that you don’t need to be an expert — you just need to be present.

This is more than a parenting guide. It’s a permission slip to slow down, breathe, and find joy in raising your child — one intentional moment at a time.
