Young children love to play and have fun as they explore the world around them. Playing games is a great way to learn new skills, build physical strength and coordination, practice new words and phrases and solve problems creatively. Playing games with others also helps young children practice waiting, sharing and taking turns. In this series there are lots of games to play and toys to make! Each day we sing the song, "Wonder What's in the Toy Box?" and open the toy box to find something hidden inside. Come and join us at Play School as we have fun and play games together!
