Heuristic Play

Under the age of two children learn through their senses. Babies learn through sensory development through handling objects, and putting them into their mouth. Toddlers have an urge to handle things: to gather, fill, dump, stack, knock down, select and manipulate in other ways.

The idea of Heuristic play is to plan and prepare the environment with real objects to extend the child’s learning. Through the use of treasure baskets, early years practitioners will explore the importance of accessibility and availability of real objects.
