Museum Design with, by, and for Children makes an important contribution to contemporary museum theory and practice by focusing on the role and rights of children in museums from a new angle: design.At a time when museum practitioners are challenged to work within their particular buildings and contexts to help the children in their communities feel welcome, invited, and involved, this book presents alternative approaches that are being implemented across the world and pushing the museum field further in its commitment to children, starting with design. This book provides inspirational insights into large- and small-scale ways that children can participate in museum design and therefore exercise their human rights, gain agency, develop their sense of belonging, and form part of museum communities. Drawing on case studies from Argentina, Australia, England, Italy, Mexico, and Paraguay, and theoretical insights from the Reggio Emilia Approach, constructivism, designerly learning, laboratory-style design, and the work of Paulo Freire and Francesco Tonucci, this book explores the extent to which museums’ design processes are child-centered and how children’s material culture can be reflected in the museum design work that will ultimately shape their own early learning experiences. This book explores museum design as a process that involves key stakeholders in procedural planning and associated tasks and discussions, such as those regarding color, light, shape, form, space, and building materials.Museum Design with, by, and for Children will be valuable for museum practitioners, students, and researchers with an interest in children’s experiences in museums, particularly how children can be empowered as active participants with rights to the museum.

My yoga experience began over 30 years ago when invited to join a friend on a six-week Hatha yoga course. Although a little nervous knowing nothing about yoga and feeling totally out of my comfort zone, my friend and I, open to a new experience, drove the short distance to the local yoga shala (studio). The serene environment impacted me immediately, slowing down my manic life for an hour every week for those six weeks. So I continued with yoga at the gym and the local community centre, trying lots of different styles and travelling abroad for yoga retreats.A string of unfortunate events then followed, including my divorce, a skiing accident, multiple car accidents and a motorcycle accident. After a period of recovery and healing, I decided to take my career in a different direction from office to yoga mat, swapping computer for asana. And with the help of a wonderful guru, my yoga teaching training continued.This was followed by more travel and yoga in magical India, a milestone birthday in Africa, more adventure, getting back on the motorbike and travels across Europe. This all gave me the strength and courage to embrace change, breath practices, poems, affirmations, quotes, and practice classes to enjoy. And let's not forget the poor old knee and more surgery...
