SOME DEFINITIONS…. Peer – Another child of roughly the same age Short interactions, minimal commitment Friend – A peer with whom the child has a special relationship Regular, sustained interactions, reciprocal liking and respect Dyads – Interactions between pairs of children Groups - Cliques, teams, and crowds with norms, rules, and hierarchies

PLAY AND PRETEND PLAY (SUTTON-SMITH & KELLY- BYRNE, 1984) Play: activities that are pursued for their own sake. Only motivation is the enjoyment received from play Becomes more complex as children age Ex: banging pans together; playing hopscotch Pretend Play: make-believe activities in which children create new symbolic relationships Object Substitution: using a broom to represent a horse Sociodramatic Play: playing doctor, teacher Emerges around 18 months

WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE TOY OR GAME AT Age 2? Age 3? Age 5?

TYPES OF COGNITIVE PLAY (SMILANSKY, 1968) TypeDescription Functional Play Simple repetitive muscle movements with or without objects Constructive Play Manipulation of objects to construct or create something Dramatic Play Substitution of an imaginary situation to satisfy the child’s personal wishes and needs Games with rules Acceptance of prearranged rules and the adjustment to these rules

TYPES OF SOCIAL PLAY (PARTEN, 1932, 1933) Observational study of 34 nursery school children, aged 2 to 4.5 Observed daily for 1 minute at a morning free play hour to reach total of 60 minute observations Group Size: All children typically played in groups of 2, but the size of the group increased with age Most popular activities: sandbox, playing family/house/dolls, trains, kiddie-car As children aged, preference for activities became more complex Youngest: preferred sandbox 3-year olds: preferred family/house/dolls Older: clay, paper, paints

TYPES OF SOCIAL PLAY (PARTEN, 1932, 1933) TypeDescription Unoccupied Play Play limited to child’s own body. Child is occupying self with anything of interest in the environment. Solitary PlayChild plays alone and his focused on his own play. Onlooker Play Children watch or talk to other children engaged in play activity. Asks questions or gives suggestions, but not involved in play activity. Parallel Play Children play in similar activities, often side-by-side. Do not interact with each other. Play BESIDE rather than WITH other children. Associative Play Children play with other children. Interact by sharing toys and commenting on each other’s activities. Not working together on the activity. Cooperative Play Children play with each other and are not completely interacting. Cooperating, reciprocating, sharing common goals.
