[quote=Anonymous]My sense is that "play based" generally means less structure and fewer rules. Lots of "free choice." If you have a 100% standard issue kid, and there are otherwise decent care providers, then they'll be fine there. But if you have a kid who needs a little more attention, the wrong kind of play-based philosophy (especially with too many kids and not enough teachers) might mean that they end up with behavioral issues. Especially for the new 3s, they really flourish better with a lot of adult interactions. So the version of "play based" where the kids are just expected to play on their own, doesn't really work.
