Play And Learn

Play and learn is exactly what children do. What we call playing is really the way children learn. With toys and their imaginations they practice all the skills they'll need as they grow up. The more they play, the more they learn, and the best thing about it is that they love it.

Young children find it hard to play alone. They need attention from someone who can play with them. Gradually they'll learn to entertain themselves for some of the time but first they need to learn how to do that.

You can't spend all of your time playing but fortunately children learn from everything that's going on around them and everything they do.. When you are washing up your toddler can stand next to you on a chair and wash the saucepan lids; when you cook make sure your baby can see and talk to you as you work. The times when children aren't learning much are the times when they are bored.

Things you can do to help them play and learn:

Find a lot of things for your child to look at.
Make what you're doing fun and interesting for your child so you can get it done.
Make some time to give all your attention to what your child wants to do.
Talk about anything and everything.
Find time for your child to run, jump climb and be active so they can learn how to use their body.
Find other people who can spend time with your child so you can get on with those things you can't do when they are around.
