The Power of Play

 

Play Investigations focus blog:

As the children play they are following their ideas with enthusiasm and commitment. Their focus is sustained and meaningful. Play builds upon the children important learning dispositions essential to life long learners, such as leadership, collaboration, problem solving, working memory, transfer of knowledge, communication, curiosity and persistence.

The children take upon the role of artist, engineers, authors, chefs, teachers and designers.

Everyday when the children play we marvel in their creativity and discoveries.
