Exploring new ways to build, create and discover, our young learners had an exciting day of loose parts play. With a variety of open-ended materials — such as natural objects, recycled items, and everyday objects — children were encouraged to use their imagination and practice their problem-solving skills along the way.
As they worked together, children experimented with different ways to arrange and combine materials, testing balance, structure and design. The open-ended nature of loose parts play allowed them to take risks, adapt their thinking, and develop essential problem-solving skills in an engaging and hands-on way.
Throughout the day, curiosity and creativity flourished. Laughter and excitement filled the space as students shared ideas, refined their creations, and marveled at what they could achieve. These moments of exploration reinforced how play is a fundamental part of learning, empowering students to think critically, collaborate and embrace new possibilities.
