Child-led Play
Child-led play has an important role in children’s learning and development because your child learns best when they are interested in an activity. With this kind of play, children explore and learn from their own thoughts and ideas. It gives children the space to be really creative with what they do and drive their own exploration.
Messy Play
Messy play gives opportunity for open-ended exploration of materials and their properties. It allows children to use their natural curiosity and engage their senses at the developmental level appropriate for them.
Water Play
Water play develops and strengthens children’s gross and fine motor skills. It enhances their creativity and imagination, promoting good health and well-being and opportunities for investigative and scientific learning.
Outdoor Play
The benefits of outdoor play are endless; some of the main advantages are that it provides a chance to practice social and emotional skills with other children, including problem solving, turn taking, encouragement, self-control, and safe risk taking.
