Encouraging Imaginative Play

APPLES Membership Training

---

This training is designed to help participants understand the importance of imaginative play in children’s development and how providing recycled and open-ended materials opens the doors of imagination and promotes executive function and higher level thinking skills in young children.  Through small and large group activities and discussions participants will identify relevant, responsive, and reflective strategies to spark creativity in the young child’s environment.
