Play: Children’s Context for Development
ECH113 - Play and Inquiry in Early Childhood
4 Pages • Essays / Projects • Year: Pre-2021
The article ‘Children’s Context for Development’ (2003) defines the universally accepted elements that construct play in order to demonstrate the importance of it for healthy child development. This piece clearly outlines the characteristics of play as positive affect, active engagement, intrinsic motivation, freedom from rules, attention to process and non-literality and further elaborate on how their contribution is essential for a child’s social and emotional development. This idea is then combined with the importance of the adults' roles as supporters of this process, varying from observation and intervention to extending the activity as well as active participation in order to provide verbal interpretations, emotional support as well as suggestions and alternatives.
