About Liz Rossiter
Growing up in the US, Liz spent many American summers on dusty road trips in the family minivan, travelling to all corners of the country, and often stopping at every hands-on Children's Museum along the way. This sparked an early and enduring passion for wonder-filled play spaces that were all about discovery, possibility, and imagination. Still captivated by the magic of developing community, collaboration, and camaraderie through playful learning experiences today, she has become a true advocate for 'Unplugged' play-based STEM learning for children as an essential balance to digital-heavy environments. Through her company, Mud Kitchen, she has curated a truly innovative collection of educational resources for schools, preschools, libraries, and community groups that perfectly fit this playful philosophy. She also facilitates 'Unplug & Play' Pop Up STEM Playgrounds, and has received a Women in STEM grant from the Australian Department of Industry, Innovation, and Science to bring these mobile playful learning spaces to communities all over Australia.
