Unlocking the Power of Play: A Key to Early Childhood Education

As part of our ongoing collaboration with Central Square Foundation - we bring to you the third part of this series of conversations where we will speak to experts in the field of Early Childhood Education to understand how play-based learning plays a significant role in fostering holistic development.

In the play based learning approach, children engage in activities that allow them to explore, experiment and discover concepts through play, supporting their emotional, social and physical growth. Play can be both structured/guided and free play. Through play, children learn to collaborate, communicate and navigate different social situations, all while building resilience and creativity.

In this episode, Niharika Nanda will be in conversation with Prof. Venita Kaul, Professor Emerita (Education), Ambedkar University, Delhi, Anustup Nayak, Project Director, Early Childhood Education, CSF and Suman, who is an Aanganwadi worker.
