The world of adults is incomprehensible to a small child. Adults do so much! There are police officers, engineers, pilots, doctors, and thousands of other professions. But children are interested in only one thing – play. During the games, they not only have fun, but also learn.

Play-based learning is an approach that uses play as a natural way for children to explore, learn, and develop. He acknowledges that young children learn best when they are actively engaged and entertained.

Traditional teaching methods often rely on rote memorization. Play-based learning emphasizes exploration, creativity, and hands-on experience. It is more fun and effective for young children as it matches their natural curiosity and developmental needs.

At the heart of this game-based learning is science. For example, research in developmental psychology and neuroscience shows that play is essential for children's cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development. The game stimulates the growth of neural connections in the brain, promoting problem-solving, creativity and self-control. This is facilitated by open-type toys that children can explore at their own pace.

 

Key Principles of Game-Based Learning

To effectively support game-based learning, keep the following key principles in mind:

Under the guidance of the child. Follow your child's interests and allow them to take the lead in their learning journey.

An open-ended type of game. Give children the opportunity to explore and experiment without a predetermined outcome.

Process-oriented. Focus on the learning process, not on specific outcomes.

Safe and supportive environment. The safer your child feels, the more risk they are willing to take. Of course, a safe physical environment is important, but a reliable connection with parents is also important. The more positive and open-minded the parent is, the more confident the child feels.
