Playwork Practice

Playwork practice focuses on facilitating children's play in a way that recognizes its intrinsic value for development and learning. Playworkers support and enhance the play experiences of children by providing a safe environment, observing their interests, and allowing them the freedom to explore, create, and engage with peers. This practice emphasizes the importance of child-led play, where children take the lead in their activities, while playworkers ensure that the environment is supportive and enriching. Ultimately, playwork fosters creativity, social skills, and emotional well-being in children, aiding their growth and development through play.
