002: Lauren Maples of the Bija Project - Child Rearing in the Anthropocene

Lauren Maples founded the Bija Project, an early childhood educational experience in Brooklyn New York which challenges the "progressive early childhood model" paradigm. Bija draws "from a combination of progressive philosophies, particularly Reggio Emilia, Bank Street, Montessori and RIE." It's the Jeet-Kun-Do of pre-k.

What is it like spending half your life working with children, then having a child of your own? We get into it.
