Early Childhood Development

Play Based Learning Activities

Play based learning uses play as the main way for children to learn.

Play based learning activities are more flexible and child focused compared to traditional teaching methods. Children are curious and learn better when they are engaged in play based learning.

We have gathered various learning activities that are suitable for all stages of early childhood. These activities are flexible and open ended.

 

Benefits Of Play-based Learning

Playing creates the best environment for young children to learn new things.

Play based activities help to develop cognitive, social and emotional, motor skills and many other essential skills. This is why learning through play is preferred for a child's holistic development.

Develop Essential Early Childhood Skills Through Play

Cognitive Development - Cognitive activities promote brain development. This helps children develop cognitive skills such as problem-solving, memory, and critical thinking.

Social and Emotional Growth - Children learn how to interact with others, share, take turns and develop empathy.

Physical Development - Physical play is any activity that gets children moving whether it's indoors or outdoors. Outdoor play activities include mud play and nature walks.

Creativity and Imagination - Roll based play, story telling, dress ups, puppet shows all help creativity and imagination.

Sensory Play - Sensory play involves activities that stimulate a child’s senses (touch, sight, smell, sound, and taste). There are many indoor and outdoor activities such as  sensory bins, playdough, sand and water play or sensory play in nature.

 

Learning With Fun Games
