Creative
Creative Play
Play that ignites a child's imagination and makes something out of nothing! A box of crayons, construction paper, pipe cleaners, scissors and glue – they are all staples in the home, but when they come together in the hands of a child, they become magical works of art. But, Creative Play extends beyond art, entering a world of music, dance, building — even dirt! Creative play includes such things as: * Painting * Sculpting play dough * Building or creating crafts Providing a child a creative outlet will lead to many amazing things, and as you may know already, some not so amazing things if it involves drawing on furniture or a wall!

Quiet
Quiet Play
Play that keeps children's mouths shut but their minds open. Playtime for children should have the opportunity to be quiet — the playtime for which adults are sometimes grateful! Children need quiet time to intently digest the items in their learning environment, like books and puzzles. Quiet play provides children an opportunity to think and reason and can include such activities as: * Beading a necklace * Working on puzzles * Reading or looking at pictures By providing a silent environment, children can focus on their toys and playthings and really get down to the work of being a child. After all, play is the work of children!

Manipulative
Manipulative Play
Play that involves hand-eye coordination and motor skills. Children need the opportunity to work on finer skills that involve a little more control and direction. Manipulative play develops the sense of coordination, challenging their little fingers to follow the lines or use their tools properly. Some examples of manipulative play are: * Coloring, especially in a defined area * Paper crafts and art involving moving parts that need to be "put together" * Using a safe and simple tool kit to help with tasks around the house Cutting out a sunshine for the window or painting within the lines — all these activities are the perfect exercise for this type of play.
