Free Play
Free play time in a safe space, where children choose their own activities and discover the room at their own pace.
The child chooses, we support
There is no programme to follow: children choose where to go, what to pick up and how long to stay.
The team is there to support when needed, without directing the play.
“Free play is work, and children know it.”
What it can offer
Autonomy
Children learn to organise their own time.
Decision making
Every choice in play is a small decision.
Imagination
With no instructions, the scenarios come from the children.
Social skills
Sharing, taking turns and working things out together.
Problem solving
Children try solutions themselves before asking for help.
Cognitive development
Observing, comparing and experimenting through play.
Benefits are possible and indicative. They are not a medical promise of results.
How a session flows
Free choice of activity
The child chooses where to start.
Solo or group play
They play alone or with others, as it happens.
Support when needed
The team steps in only when the moment calls for it.
A calm close
We tidy up together, without rushing.
