"Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But, for children, play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood."
~ Fred Rogers
OCD is not an adjective. It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized. It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son.
AS a professional child care provider i give a big AMEN to this!!!
I went to a full day training on this back in April. "The play is in the child" PLAY is HOW they learn!!! I teach 4 and 5 year-olds now and people are still surprised how much of our day is open play time. It's what is age appropriate and expected.
