Constructive play has a rich capacity to teach children to problem solve, connect, understand and be inquisitive in their play, constructive play is an important part of an early learning environment. 

It uses open-ended materials and allows children to think about the functions of the materials that they are using. It can involve playing or constructing with three-dimensional materials like blocks, but we also see constructive play with play dough and recycled materials where children get to decide what to make and how to use these materials.
