 Learning through Play

From Sesame Street in Communities: "Children love to play, and believe it or not, they’re learning as they play. They practice social skills like sharing and empathy. They learn to think critically when they listen to instructions or remember steps. And they learn positive ways to express their emotions. There are so many ways to play. Imaginative or dramatic play can be especially exciting to work into your daily routines."
