This third edition explores theory and practice, providing practical examples and illustrations to support the application of ideas in early years settings.

Practical examples are woven throughout, accompanied by additional full-colour photos. This resource is ideal for students studying childhood studies, playwork programmes, or training to teach at early years or primary level, as well as early years, primary, and play practitioners. Extensively revised with new contributions, Perspectives on Play Learning for Life provides a comprehensive guide to understanding the importance of play in children's development.
