According to Kenneth Ginsburg in the American Pediatrics Journal, play is essential to development because it contributes to the cognitive, physical, social, and emotional well-being of children and youth. Play also offers an ideal opportunity for parents to engage fully with their children…. Play is a cherished part of childhood that offers children important developmental benefits and parents the opportunity to fully engage with their children.
At Chatsworth Primary, we believe that play is a vital part of our program. Check out some of moments that I caught this week to support this theory.
Now to watching some play from your Year Five classes! Year Five Camp video link
