Inhaltsangabe

Adventurous Play is a practical interpretation of the thoughts and ideas that underpin the meeting of children's developmental needs, and acknowledges the critical role of providing play opportunities needed by children, particularly in early childhood centres. It presents a wealth of detail on areas such as: how to create and interpret challenging and stimulating play; how to see safety in the context of children's developmental needs; and, how to enrich the play space. The resource provides the needed link to ensure that children can flourish within an ever-changing environment, varied forms of spaces and varying social configurations, as well as examples shown through photographs.
