LEAP Kindergarten

The Research on Play

-- Vivian Gussin Paley

“Children now spend far more time being taught and tested on literacy and math skills than they do learning through play and exploration, exercising their imaginations.” -- Crisis in Kindergarten

Play is essential to development because it contributes to the cognitive, physical, social, and emotional well-being of children and youth. --American Academy of Pediatrics

The Powerful Lessons of Play Use of Language Better Social Skills More Empathy Engagement with Peers Development of Problem- Solving Skills Enhancement of confidence Expansion of Vocabulary Higher levels of thinking More self-control and less aggression While also providing students with a meaningful context for literacy.
