Earlyarts is a network of practitioners and policy makers who are involved in developing creative practice for birth to fives. The organisation, which endeavours to get parents and their children involved in creative play, has designed a series of postcards that are now available for practitioners and organisations to purchase and distribute to parents.

This set of four postcards designs is now available for anyone who would like to order a bulk load, to distribute amongst parents, hand out at activity days and parent visits, and generally use as an advocacy tool for creative play. Each of the postcards focuses on a different aspect of children's learning and development, and the activities suggested on them are based in the real world activities that many parents will be familiar with and be willing to engage in.

The activities are all child-oriented and act as a starter to encourage parents and carers to become more involved in their child's development, with lots of opportunities for these activities to be taken further in the home or the early years setting. On the reverse of each postcard is a list of four areas of learning and development that each activity will promote, to help parents understand the links between creative play and development of important skills and competencies.
