Video - What is child-led learning and play?
In this video I explain just what child-led learning and child-led play means, what it means to follow a child's interests and how we can use specific resources within an environment to help create a child-led environment. I also discuss the use of loose parts and playdough within child-led learning and why they are such a helpful resource to use.
I have also written a previous blog post which discusses child-led leaning environments and why they are so important, which you can find here.
