Besides, playing is one of our first approaches to their physical development and learning. It just shows how important the role of playing into the lives of our children is. That’s why we need to give them the freedom to walk around and discover things by themselves. But still, we need to guide and watch over to keep them safe. If we are a new parent, we need to understand and know the importance of the stage children only love to play. We have to grab the chance to nurture them as they are still young. Because at this stage, whatever they saw, heard, encountered, and learned will greatly influence their behavior. That’s why we need to feed their mind with good things and learnings. Because this will manifest on them when they grow older.
