Imaginative play is the work of childhood.  Unstructured imaginative play in our rich and supportive environment is the backbone of our emergent and negotiated curriculum. Whether play is inside or outside, with the natural world as a backdrop or with props and other materials, play is where children form Theories of Mind, step in and out of roles, experience other perspectives, learn and try out new ideas.  From the play emerge BIG ideas, and concepts worth pursuing deeper as a project, whether lasting a day or a woven throughout a year.
