Training & Consultations




I am Angie Carnes, the voice and passionate heart behind Rush Less Play More., I am thrilled that you are here and can't wait to help you along your play journey!
My hope is, as you scroll through my course and coaching offerings, you find the perfect fit for you.
It is impossible to please everyone, but I do my absolute best to provide trainings that meet providers where they are with their understanding and application of a child-led, play based curriculum.
Trainings
In my quest to create a program full of play, learning, nature, and moments children would remember for a lifetime, I discovered that play based learning is a must for all early childhood environments and am now an advocate for rushing less and playing more!
I am excited to use my experience and B.S. in Education with an emphasis in ECE to help early childhood educators find play, settle in, and enjoy the journey through a variety of hands on in-person and online training.
I am currently offering monthyly in-person trainings in my own child care program. I believe it is important for providers to be able to see the ideas in action and discuss how they work in my program.
Follow me on Facebook to find my training calendar and sign ups!
