School starts and we, the adults, can get caught up with the school work, homework, routines, etc. What we should do is take some time and let kids play? Children often struggle with communicating thoughts and feelings, especially when they are very young. Planned play times may not seem like a way to communicate, but it is a wonderful and effective way for kids to communicate and gives adults an opportunity to teach.
Playing boosts confidence in children by providing and outlet for:
- Expanding self-expression
- Increasing self-knowledge
- Transferring ideas to real-life
- Problem-solving
- Relieving stress
- Relieving boredom
- Making connections
Adults can help to facilitate intrapersonal and interpersonal social skills and vocabulary. This will better overall classroom management for teachers and home base management for parents.
