Empathy and self-regulation: How children learn these skills (and more) through play!
When children play, they are developing empathy, self-awareness and self-regulation, which leads to a lifetime of healthy relationships with themselves and others. These skills are part of social-emotional development and means children are learning to: - identify, manage, and express their emotions - take cues from their body and mind (such as learning that when their eyes are heavy it means they’re tired) - relate to the experiences of others - connect with their peers, family, and community

How children develop numeracy skills while they play
Children are learning math everywhere! From the songs we sing (like 5 Little Ducks, or 10 Little fingers), to pushing cars down ramps, to lining up toys and sorting by colour or shapes - children are developing the foundational skills to one day count, add and subtract, accurately measure, and more! These skills last a lifetime and will be used when budgeting for groceries, measuring ingredients to make a healthy meal or following directions to get to their destination.
