Book excerpt: What is play and why is it important? Worldwide, the role and significance of play-based learning as opposed to an aca℗Ưdemic curriculum is under scrutiny. Rethinking learning through play focuses on the role of play in young children in the early years and how it encour℗Ưages optimal learning. Rethinking learning through play examines various theories and approaches to play, and explores a range of strategies and techniques to integrate play successfully in the learning environment and daily programme. With its strong theoretical founda℗Ưtion, it explains in practical terms what and how children learn through play, and how to support learning through play in different contexts.
