Emphasize the importance of play and learning from infancy through the primary grades

Discover ways to provide a strong curricular approach for young children's learning while endorsing a playful pedagogy. The articles in this collection emphasize using play to promote children's skills in problem solving, decision making, and self-regulation; engaging diverse learners in play activities; and partnering with families to further children's playful learning. Specific topics include ways educators can:

  • Support infants' and toddlers' active explorations with sensory activities and unique materials
  • Provide opportunities for children to engage in active, physical play
  • Guide children's learning through art play
  • Communicate to others the importance and value of play for children from birth through third grade
