Vanderbilt Hands-On Play Lab

At the Vanderbilt Hands-On Play Lab, we are focused on discovering and understanding the processes supporting learning early in life. We believe that deeper understandings of typical and atypical development can enrich each other, and that both of these are worthy of our time and attention. We primarily conduct research studies with these goals in mind, but we additionally host free community events, called My PlayClub, at inclusive playgrounds around Middle TN to promote inclusion.
