Is adult led play important?

Conclusion

A child may not want to do the adult led activity

Adults may get too involved which may hold back the child's involvement

Planning activities allow a child's development to flourish

Children Learn all aspects of the EYFS by getting more knowledge

It allows higher risk activities

from my research i found that adult led activities do not necessarily benefit children's development more than any child led activities overall. However, adult led play can benefit children's development by giving them a wider range of activities to learn from.

I found that there is not many theorists based just around adult led play. Although, i still feel like is important and there should be more research based on adult led play.

From my research i found that for children to develop to their potential they should have both structured play and free play.

It may be an activity out of the child's capability

The child does not have freedom of choice

Piaget 's cognotive development theory

Moyles spiral curriculum

"Schemas are the basic building blocks of such cognitive models and enables us to form a mental representation of the world"

Although adult led play is important Moyles focused on the fact a child should be allowed to play freely, and then have structured play, and then play freely again.

Piaget says "A child's development is based on interaction with the environment."

Janet Moyles focuses on the fact a child should learn by themselves first before they have adult led play and activities.
