Abstract

"learning for young children is a rewarding and enjoyable experience in which they explore, investigate, discover, create, practise, rehearse, repeat, revise and consolidate their developing knowledge, skills, understandings and attitudes. During the foundation stage, many of these aspects of learning are brought together effectively through playing and talking". (QCA, 2000: 20) The same idea is also emphasized in the "Principles for Early Years Education": "children do not make a distinction between "play" and "work" and neither should practitioners" (QCA, 2000: 11).
