Learning through playful interactions
At BestStart Macdonald street our teachers support children's development through sharing and enriching children’s narratives, creative games, storytelling, teaching of early literacy skills and encouragement to play imaginatively with other children, allowing children to take the lead and providing structure or guidance when needed. Throughout their first years, children learn best through playful interactions, rather than formal activities.
