Child-Initiated Play and Learning shows how a creative approach to
learning that allows for spontaneous adventures in play through
child-led projects can lead to rich learning experiences that build
on children's own interests. This second edition has been fully
updated in light of policy and curriculum changes and features new
material to help practitioners make informed decisions around
digital technology and how children engage with it. Including
scenarios and provocative questions for reflective practice, this
book looks at planning and considers the possibilities that should
be encouraged when playing alongside young children. Drawing on
practice from Reggio Emilia, New Zealand, Scandinavia and in
settings in the UK, the book covers all aspects of planning
including: how to enable and empower children to lead projects;
organisation of indoor and outdoor materials and space; inclusive
practice and contemporary research; learning through managing risks
and adventurous play; working with parents and carers; challenging
teams to explore what they actually believe about possibilities of
play. In a busy setting it can be difficult to adopt a flexible,
creative approach to planning that embraces the unexpected rather
than relying on templates or existing schemes of work. This book
will give readers the confidence to adopt a flexible approach to
planning that will better meet the needs of the children in their
care. The authors are experienced lecturers, practitioners,
advisors and managers. Working with students, visiting placements,
training teachers and early years professionals, they provide a
sense of real purpose in their optimistic writing and enjoyment in
the themes made explicit throughout this book.
