Tips and advice for parents, from parents and educators in the community!

Cheryl posted March 6, 2025

Children learn a tremendous amount through play. It is more than having fun it's a fundamental part of their development. Here's a breakdown of why play is so crucial:

Cognitive Development:
Problem-solving: Play allows children to experiment and figure things out.
Creativity and imagination: Pretend play fosters imaginative thinking and the ability to come up with new ideas.
Memory and attention: Games and activities can help improve memory and focus.
Language development: Social play and storytelling through play enhance vocabulary and communication skills.
Social and Emotional Development:
Social skills: Play teaches children how to cooperate, negotiate, and share.
Emotional regulation: Play allows children to express and process their emotions.
Empathy: Role-playing and pretend play help children understand different perspectives.
Building relationships: Play is a key way children form bonds with others.
Physical Development:
Gross motor skills: Running, jumping, climbing, and other physical activities improve coordination and strength.
Fine motor skills: Activities like drawing, building with blocks, and playing with small toys enhance dexterity.
sensory exploration: play allows children to investigate their world through touch, sight, sound, smell and taste.
Learning about the World:
Exploration: Play allows children to explore their environment and learn about cause and effect.
Understanding concepts: Through play, children can grasp abstract concepts like size, shape, and numbers.
Developing interests: Play helps children discover their passions and talents.
In essence, play is how children make sense of the world around them.

I have a 4 year old daughter who has been diagnosed with a mild speech delay. No signs of autism, she’s been tested. But I’m wondering what I can do at home to help her? She talks and communicate mostly what she wants, however, there’s a disconnect. Watching her get frustrated when she knows what she wants but can’t form the words. We’ve tried speech therapy, but it wasn’t helping (will try again). But is there something I’m missing? We read daily, she loves books. Put her in daycare last year (Covid babies didn’t get to socialize much so I feel like she missed out). Are there Toys? Games? Activities? Diet suggestions? Anything that can help. Thank you!
