The Importance of Free Play In Aquatic Spaces
Free play is Important for children’s development. Exploring and learning can often mean that kids are taking risks and jumping to, and sliding down fire poles on playgrounds, climbing equipment, balancing on sidewalk curbs, jumping off swings, etc. Playing enables kids to problem solve, think critically and to create. We see these examples when kids are playing with Lego sets, playing house, and building forts.
