In this assignment I plan to explain how play helps to improve the development of children and young people. Play is extremely important for the development of children. It is important that from a young age children play with things like toys and even with other children. Between the ages of 0 – 3 is when children develop the most. Through play children can improve their fine and gross motor skills by using toys such as shape sorters and using musical tables which have buttons and things to turn. This helps to develop fine motor skills. Gross motor skills are developed through crawling and learning to walk. If children have toys that are spread out whilst

9. Explain the value of enabling children and young people to manage risk for themselves. The value of enabling children and young people to manage risk for themselves is to get the child to push their own limits i.e. if they were playing on a climbing frame, they would know how high to climb or jump from the climbing frame.

A play cycle begins in the pre conscious thoughts of the child, it is at the point of daydream where the playful impulse is created and given out as the play cue. Once this cue is taken up by a responding partner the play cycle begins. The metalude signals the start of the play process and while it supports a single play thought in the Childs consciousness it can change in seconds to become another playful thoughts or an extended version of its original self. The play cue can be given out in many ways, facial expressions, eyes contact, body language or simply through using materials I.e. a ball or a colouring pencil.

The only thing that confused me about the whole package was the lack of commentaries. I'm so used to seeing commentaries on most releases I review, so it threw me for a loop when there wasn't a single one provided for either movie. However, it's a tiny nitpick given the substantial amount of features provided.

Naomi lizuka’s Good Kid’s is by far one of the most interesting and most relevant plays that I have read so far during this semester. With so much issues happening on college campuses nowadays, it was time someone stood up to create awareness for people in the community in regards to the issue of sexual assault. The play clearly speaks to people in recent times because unfortunately this play depicts something that should be considered abnormal but because society has transformed lately over the past decade, this is actually considered a rather normal incident at the educational institute. As we watch the news, it is not a shock to be informed about inappropriate sexual relations within an educational institution. Overall, society has been desensitized by theatrics incorporating vicious scenes that illustrate sexual violence. This has become the new norm in this modern society.

Frankly, I didn't see much of an issue with the transfer, save for a few rough scenes taking place in a hospital, which had some wear and tear present. Besides that, the transfer was fairly solid. The same goes for The Curse, which keeps a lovely grainfield intact, but still has some nice solid blacks. As for the audio, which is DTS-HD Master Audio Stereo for both, it's a bit on the low side in Curse II's case, resulting in having to turn up the speakers a bit higher than usual, but overall, the sound was clean and clear for both movies.

In “Children Need to Play, Not Compete”, the author Jessica Statsky stated that imposition of children’s sports into adult standard by parents and coaches to their children, can make these sports unenjoyable and unbeneficial to children. She said that these sports such as Peewee Football and Little League Baseball can have harmful effects on both physical and psychological states of children ages six to twelve because it is played competitively thus inappropriate to their ages. In addition, because of the coaches’ and parents’ value for competition and winning, many of the children were eliminated before they become ready to face the completion thus, they didn’t really succeed in discovering the true potentials of the children.

The significance of children’s imaginative play is presented from the perspective of Descriptive Psychology and in particular Ossorio’s Dramaturgical model of persons. The fluidity of imaginative play, the imitation of and creation of social practices and options within play as well as the opportunity to switch roles and act according to reasons of another, contribute to the development of judgment. The observer-critic role emerges during imaginative play as children produce, direct, and enact their dramas. Within these scenarios, children develop competence and eligibility to be not only status assigners but also self status assigners. During

Play is the business of childhood, allowing your child free rein to experiment with the world around him and the emotional world inside him, says Linda Acredolo, professor of psychology at the University of California at Davis and co-author of Baby Signs: How to Talk With Your Baby Before Your Baby Can Talk and Baby Minds: Brain-Building Games Your Baby Will Love. While it may look like mere child's play to you, there's a lot of work — problem solving, skill building, overcoming physical and mental challenges — going on behind the scenes. Here are some of the things your child is experiencing and learning, along with ideas on how you can help boost the benefits of his play. Play builds the

The stages of social play is a theory that is composed by Mildred Parten. In 1932, she conducted a study of children from ages of 2 to 4 years old. The goal of her experiment was to identify the interaction of children among peers and influences of play. There are 6 stages of social play behavior; unoccupied, onlooker, solitary independent, parallel activity, associative play, and cooperative organized play. All of these stages were represented in my observation of the toddlers play with one another. The first 3 behaviors of social play correlated to a child’s independence involved to social play among his or her peers. Those behaviors are unoccupied, onlooker, and solitary independence. First, the behavior of a child may not engage in

The Blu-ray from Scream Factory is certainly nice looking, with the play scenes being the most eye pleasing material. There are some blooming issues in certain scenes and a bit of graininess during night scenes, but overall it's a nice looking disc. The audio side of things is also pleasant, with three choices to choose from:

The Binding has been released on Blu-ray from Scream Factory and with it being a newer movie, there isn’t much in the way of problems with the video or audio. I did notice one part in the movie where the blacks weren’t exactly black and caused a brightness issue with a scene transition. As for the audio, the dialogue is a bit low as everyone seems to be whispering in this movie. Besides that, there weren't any notable problems.

What is play? Play is “a recreational activity; especially the spontaneous activity of children.” (Webster, 2010) Play is such a basic function and daily routine in a child’s life. Although the roles of play and the types of play change though age, it all incorporates in the growth and development of a child.
