Playful learning in early childhood is identified as being best practice for children birth through age 8. When children have the opportunity to make choices in the materials they use, and the outcome of their creations, they are learning the skills that they need to be successful in school, and life. In this class, we will talk about the difference between product art and process art as well as higher level questioning practices that teachers can provide to guide children’s thought processes and learning.
