Quote
Your baby’s playtime is not just idle time. Important discoveries are being made, and significant learning is taking place. Your baby is learning about the properties of various objects, to be sure. But she’s also practicing and acquiring fine and gross motor skills. Through repetition and practice, she’s learning how to learn. When given plenty of time for uninterrupted play, she’s developing the ability to focus and to have a long attention span. She’s learning to tolerate struggle to problem-solve, and that challenge is a necessary part of life.
