Play is everything…
The more a child is allowed and enabled to play the more engaged they will become .

The more their confidence grows the more they can start to learn. Their play tests their ideas and building their abilities.

If you think of play from an adults perspective… you are never going to learn if you are not involved or interested. Or if someone keeps telling you how to think.

Okay so what about outcomes ..

The most productive learning outcomes always come from child led play, when you are interested, feel safe and can voice your ideas and feelings freely, that when you ll learn .

Play isn’t just about learning is about being in flow and in the moment.

Play and especially outdoor play is so well researched that it really is the only way forward…

What are your thoughts …
Are children full of knowledge ?

Trust the child’s knowledge of their own play …
Don’t try to change it, support it, give them autonomy and time to develop their ideas in their way .

Love of life long learning starts right here …

Are you going to choose play ?
