All In a Day's Play - Part 2

Child Development at Work

Course Description

As early years professionals, we all know that play is a crucial means through which children learn and their brains develop. In Part 1, we saw why the early years are so important for building young brains. In Part 2, we continue to explore key domains of early learning and development, in order to provide enriching play environments and observe and document children’s development.
