[quote=Anonymous]The problem with playbased is that you need to have a really good program and I don't see that many out there. Many full day play based programs are in centers with revolving staff that don't change their curriculum much from week to week. A good playbased program might be like Takoma Park Nursery School which has a blog showing a lot of creative outdoor play and creative art and writing or some of the Reggio programs. Many good play based programs are for just a few hours a week, so a full day play based preschool often leaves many hours of the same type of play all day every year. Montessori tends to provide a nice compliment to playbased although if there isn't enough play throughout the day with a teacher to help guide the children, the program tends to be short on social interaction and creative play. It all depends on the child, the school, and the teacher how well they do.[/quote]
