The Benefits of Play-Based Learning in Playgroups for Toddlers

This is a no-brainer; play is important at an early age for your child to grow and explore the tiniest to the largest thing around them. Similarly, learning from an early age is the demand of the rapidly advancing world. Then this might sound too good to be true, but can play-based learning really help toddlers to learn?

Many learning centers for toddlers support and promote play-based learning. Although, nobody can understand the magic of play-based learning more than parents. For instance, there are many families where parents stock their children's toy boxes with mini brooms, dustpans, pans, and little pots. As toddlers copy everything their parents do, they learn more about the world around them by mimicking their parents.


How does play-based learning help children in their early years?

Play promotes creativity and imagination skills in toddlers and even helps in developing numeracy and vocabulary skills. In the play, school teachers honor the curiosity and playfulness of toddlers and channel their energies in the right direction to help them learn through playing. An English playgroup in Hong Kong promotes learning that goes through various playful activities.

Play-based learning is self-directed.

Although giving up control can be challenging for adults, it is crucial for play-based learning to be guided by the kid. In other words, it is up to the child to pick what and how they want to play. To ensure that the child is interested in and involved in what they have selected for themselves, the play might be interactive, with the adult offering ideas while the child actively participates in the session.

Play is always enjoyable and fun for the children. If playing helps in learning and developing the intellectual growth of children, this is well and good. Spring Learning offers a curriculum with a wide range of activities, such as a baby gym, cooking classes, Baby Massage in HK, and more. This promotes learning while playing.
