When I Play...I Learn!

A child engrossed in play is developing initiative, curiosity and the joy of exploration.

When I look at objects at a nature table, I learn to appreciate nature and develop a sense of wonder!

When I participate in circle time I learn that my ideas have value to the other children and the teacher.

When I play dress up I learn to use my imagination!

When I play with play dough or clay, I learn the concepts of shapes, sizes, length and height!

When I look at books and listen to stories, I learn that I like books and someday I would like to be able to read them, too, when I am ready!

When I do fun projects I learn concepts of warm and cool, wet, damp and dry, heavy and light.
