Early years practitioners are shown how to develop their understanding and practical applications in all early years settings in this handbook. The book is centered around two principles of learning - that it should begin 'where the child is' and that it should be gained through play.
Chapters support:
- An understanding of play and its role in learning
- An understanding of the role of the adult in the pre-school setting
- The development of practitioners' skills in providing effective learning and development through quality play
- Developing and planning the curriculum and learning environment.
