BERMAIN DAN PEMANFAATANNYA DALAM PERKEMBANGAN ANAK USIA DINI

Abstract

Playing is a basic right of early childhood. It is an activity of self-expression without coercion with feelings of pleasure. In early childhood, playing can provide many benefits to childrens’ development. The benefits can develop the moral, motoric, cognitive, language, and social development of children. The benefits of playing is not only felt when being done with a group of friends, but playing alone can also provide benefits for young children early. Certainly knowing the benefits of playing will add a reference for stakeholders in early childhood to insert elements of education in every child's play activities. Unwitting children, play activities that children do can provide an assessment to educators or parents. On what stage will the development of the child stop? The assessment, can be seen when children are engrossed in play and unnoticed by the children that they are being observed of their growing process.
