At iLEAD Agua Dulce, we implement play-based learning, an approach to education that encourages children to learn through exploration, experimentation, and play. It is an active, hands-on, and child-centered approach to learning that recognizes the importance of play in children’s development. Play-based learning can take many different forms, including imaginative play, games, puzzles, and physical activities.
In a play-based learning environment, children are encouraged to take an active role in their learning, exploring new ideas and concepts through their own experiences and interactions with their peers. Facilitators provide support, guidance, and encouragement, but they do not direct the learning process. Instead, they create a safe and inspiring environment that encourages children to learn through their own curiosity and creativity.
Play-based learning has been shown to benefit children in many ways, including improving their cognitive, social, and emotional development. It also helps them develop important skills, such as problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking.
