Loose parts is instrumental in the development of children, providing opportunities for children to experience a variety of objects where they can invent and discover to create a world of 'what if'.
Loose parts involves using man made and natural objects that provide endless opportunities to invent, construct, deconstruct, problem solve and experiment with no fixed outcome.
This type of play encourages imagination, fine and gross motor skills, co-ordination, self esteem, self confidence and can help a child to self regulate. Loose parts play is ideal for a child's progression through every area of the 'Early Years Foundation Stage'.
