Playing with Loose Parts
Date and Location
When (Date/Time)
March 17, 2012, 9:00 AM - 12:00 PMWhere
Donohoe CenterHave you ever heard of the theory of loose parts? The theory of loose parts has begun to influence child-play experts and playscape designers in a big way. In a preschool, loose parts are materials with multiple uses. They are materials with no specific set of directions that can be used alone or combined with other materials. Loose parts encourage creativity, imagination, and open-ended learning. As children play, stories surface. Come play with materials and experience how language opportunities abound.
