Play is joyful and free.

When children are given the space to explore, imagine, and follow their interests without strict rules or outcomes, play is both joyful and free. This freedom allows them to express themselves, make choices, and enjoy the moment. The laughter, curiosity, and excitement that come from unstructured play create a joyful atmosphere where learning feels natural and fun. Students used their bodies to explore how pushes and pulls could help them move while playing on the playground. Pushes and pulls help us climb and navigate the monkey bars!
