Working Together

On February 2nd, a small group in the back room worked together to build a bridge and walk across it. They invited others to join the play and talked about how they were making the bridge long. When they made it to the end of the bridge, they each would shout, “I did it!” As children grow and develop, they go through stages of play. Near the beginning of the school year, the children tended to play by themselves (solitary play) or alongside others (parallel play). We now see the children showing more interest in their peers and interacting more with one another (associative play). We are so excited to see what the children will plan that involves working together!
