Creative Play And Its Benefits

 One of the renowned scientists has once said in his words that "Play is the highest form of research."

Don't consider the play word that bouncy. Yes! You got it right. There are numerous benefits connected with creativity during the play.

Creative play is a vivacious part of childhood and for the child growth. Children can grow emotionally, socially, intellectually, and even physically through creative and inventive play. 

Creativity always helps a child to develop their skills and enable them to share their opinions, moods and thoughts. Revealing your children to creative prospects contributes to and furthers their development.

Coming up with methods to play creatively doesn't have to be stressful or time-consuming. In fact, over-structuring is the reverse of creative play. Every small step toward developing a child's skills is a significant breakthrough in their growth and cheerfulness.

What tools and processes do we need to engage the kids?

Many ideas and concepts for creative and imaginative play are available all around us. Often, we oversee the unassuming things that aren't as straightforward to a child.

How often do you see a small child watching any particular thing and analyzing it with different kid dish experiments? 

Emotional, social, psychological, intellectual and physical skills are ripened with the introduction of the simple things in a kid's world. Try using some of these household items to make games, tell stories, or just have fun with them.

·         Scrubbers and sponges

·         Paper & Charts

·         Raw Cardboard and boxes lying in the junk

·         Cello Tapes

·         Paints (Acrylic or Oil)

·         Any Markers (permanent or board), Crayons and pencil colours

·         Molding materials like clay

·         Slimes

·         Ribbons

All these activities enhance the child's emotional, social, psychological, intellectual, and physical development.

Emotional Development: 

Emotional development involves knowing what feelings and emotions are? Understanding how and why they occur, identifying one's own feelings and those of others, and developing operative ways of handling them. 
Children use play to release emotions, work through feelings, and better understand their world by play-acting in situations they can control.  
       

Social Development: 

During the play, kids continuously levy their own connotations on objects. They are beyond discovering object properties and instead ask, "What can I do with these objects?".
Play is universal and critical for healthy social development for kids. Play-based learning takes place in a setting that results from the active engagement of the child and the communication between the child and her peers, which results in kids' social development.

Psychological Development: 

Play supports your toddler's intellectual growth – that is, your child's ability to think, understand, communicate, remember, imagine, and work out what might happen next. This way, he can make decisions, what is better for them.

Physical development: 

Physical development in kids happens in a series of milestones. As the little one raises, so does their body. But, slowly progressively, the child is preparing to take on the structural build, which is almost similar to a mature adult person's. 

Physical development in kids should be complemented with proper food and a healthy balanced diet as this ensures good growth and development of the muscles and the bones.

Creative play (activities) are not just impractical and idealistic things. They help our kids develop intellectually, physically and socially, and further will help set our child up for a life of creative thinking. So now…. let's get busy and help our kids think out of the box and live free.
