Describing the role of play in supporting all children learning and development.

Plan-

Sensory play- build gross and fine motor skills

Builds curiosity through new experiences eg. Texture smells and tastes

Requires little cognitive development

In placement they do water play/gloop/custard play/cooking

Children's natural curiosity to discover and explore-

Children have no background knowledge or opinions so they play with a blank mind  allowing them to play in their own way and discovering how things work through physically doing it.

eg in placement (they are able to gook and find out what happens to things lie cake batter once its cooked.

How play stimulates and motivates learning and development

-          Play encourages children to leave there comfort zone and build interests in different things

-          Incorporates learning in ways children can recognise which allows them to enjoy it

-          Creates a way for children to independently learn but also how to work in groups when they play with peers

The importance of including children's interests in play provision-

-          Allows the child an element of independence by creating and displaying their own interests whilst the practitioner can still lead the play activity

-          Ensures they are interested and enjoying the play
