• The Early Years Foundation Stage is a play based framework that all UK
childcare providers use as a tool to ensure that children from birth to five
years are developing and learning to their full potential. Play is one of the
main ways in which children learn and develop. It helps to build self-worth
by giving a child a sense of his or her own abilities and to feel good about
themselves. Because it is fun, children often become very absorbed in what
they are doing.
• Play is very important to a child's development; it is an integral part of a
child's Early Years Foundation Stage and supports their learning journey too. Young children can develop many skills through the power of play. They may
develop their language skills, emotions, creativity and social skills. Play helps
to nurture imagination and give a child a sense of adventure. Through this,
they can learn essential skills such as problem solving, working with others,
sharing and much more.
• Providers plan and provide a range of play activities, which help children to
make progress in each of the following areas of learning and development.
