Importance of Play-Based Learning in Early Childhood

Play-based learning is crucial in the early years as it allows children to explore, take risks, solve problems, and develop foundational skills without pressure. Children engage in play to understand how things work, such as holding a book or a pencil, which are essential for literacy, numeracy, and social skills.
