PLAY BASED LEARNING

Under the educational aproach of Play Based Learning, we recognize play as a fundamental tool for children's development and learning.

We focus on creating learning environments where children can explore, experiment, and discover concepts for themselves through play. This approach acknowledges that play is natural for children and allows them to learn actively and meaningfully.

We have an educational approach that places the child at the center of the learning process. We recognize the uniqueness of each child and value their interests, needs, and abilities. Children are naturally curious, active, and capable of directing their learning when provided with a supportive environment and appropriate opportunities.

Experts agree that play is important because:

  • Play develops 5 essential skills: physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and creative skills.

  • Play is key to children's brain development and growth.

  • Children need to play to grow and learn.

  • Play is a way of engaging in everyday life.

  • During play, children explore and experience the world around them in a safe way.

  • Children have fun, and that is valuable in itself.
