[quote=Anonymous]Don't fall into the false "play vs learning" bit. Play is a way to learn, or as NAEYC puts it, "Play is a child’s context for learning." "Children practice and reinforce their learning in multiple areas during play. It gives them a place and a time for learning that cannot be achieved through completing a worksheet. For example, in playing restaurant, children write and draw menus, set prices, take orders, and make out checks. Play provides rich learning opportunities and leads to children’s success and self-esteem."
