The Importance of Play in Children Growth and Learning

By: Ashley Lindo

Play is often viewed as a simple pastime for children, but it is actually a fundamental component of their growth and development. Through play, children explore their environment, develop critical thinking skills, and enhance their creativity. Whether it be imaginative, physical, or social play, these interactions can help promote a number of behavioral skills. Cooperating with others, and expressing their emotions are some of the few benefits that come out of play. In a daycare setting, children take enjoyment from having a structured play environment with staff that offers variety. Our daycare recognizes its a vital piece in early childhood education and takes pride in providing an enriching space for individuality. By choosing our daycare, you’re giving your child the opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive while having fun each and every day.
