The Importance of Child’s Play
Play is how children learn best.
Through play, children:
- Explore their world.
- Learn how to get along with others.
- Develop their skills and muscles.
- Try out new ideas.
- Learn problem solving.
- Build self-confidence.
- Expand language skills.
Support and encourage your child’s play. Allow a variety of play experiences to help
your child explore his/her environment.
Set the stage for productive play with the following ideas.
Pretend Play
Keep items handy for your child such as:

- Empty or hand-made grocery and/or cooking items
- Puppets, stuffed animals, dolls, cars, trucks
Solitary Play
Encourage independence by providing:

- A box filled with safe, non-toxic art materials
Outdoor Play
Make your yard a discovery area by providing:
