[quote=Anonymous]As others said, free play is important. Your child will naturally learn how to play with others, she doesn't need to be told how to do so. If she plays on her own, it's because she wants to. (The safety/monkey bars issue is separate.). If she wants to play with other kids, she'll do it by her own motivation, she shouldn't be pushed to go talk to someone (that's a great way to get kids to NOT want to do something). Also, another important aspect of this is that caregivers need small breaks to take a breath and relax. Even though preschool may not be a full day, it is exhausting dealing with kids of that age, and you want your caregivers to have a moment to regroup and relax so that when they're "on" in the classroom, they're not sick of interacting with the kids. This is the reality, and it's critical that people (including parents if they're home full-time with their kids) get breaks. [/quote]
