Play is one of the most important means by which children learn and develop. It supports learning, language and social development, and enhances creativity. It also overlaps with the nurture agenda, supporting children to develop healthy and supportive relationships and attachments, making them feel valued by others and confident in themselves, and teaching them how to communicate constructively and positively. In all of this, it is about equipping them with the emotional and mental resilience to deal with the challenges of life – and these are skills for life.
