Here's why Bodily Regulation is the Foundation for Connection, Play and Learning

Before we can help children manage big emotions, build friendships, or engage in learning, we need to understand what's happening in their bodies.

When children's sensory systems - touch, balance, and body awareness - are working well, they feel safe and organised in their bodies. This stable foundation allows them to regulate emotions, connect with others, and fully engage in play and learning.

But when these foundational systems are underdeveloped, everything becomes harder.

At our Power of Play Conference 2026, keynote speaker, Sarah Lloyd (creator of the BUSS® Model), will explore how building strong sensorimotor foundations transforms children's capacity for connection, play, and learning.

Expect experiential practices, evidence-based theory, and practical insights you can use in your work with children and families.
