Why Loose Parts?

There are many reasons why early learning environments should incorporate a multitude of loose parts, including:

• Loose parts can be adapted and manipulated in many ways.
• Loose parts encourage creativity and imagination.
• Loose parts develop skill and competence.
• Loose parts encourage open ended learning.

During this session, participants will discuss, share and learn about  the endless possibilities and positive benefits of loose parts in early years environments.
