THE POWER OF LOOSE PARTS PLAY

Loose Parts is simply a name for stimulating materials that children can manipulate in endless ways. Through this process they learn the foundational principles of how the world works. Loose parts are open ended and reusable in an infinite number of ways. Unlike other educational resources that can sit unused, the Nüdel Kart allows children to have a different learning experience everyday without losing interest, making it a smart investment over the long term.

It is precisely because of their open-endedness that loose parts engage the highest forms of thinking and interaction such as creativity, problem solving, social skills and emotional intelligence. Loose parts play and Nüdel Kart support STEM learning through authentic engagement in real world challenges.

Loose parts are also excellent for psycho-social support for children from traumatised and disadvantaged backgrounds allowing them to express themselves in a safe, open ended and creative environment.

UNSTRUCTURED, CHILD DIRECTED LEARNING

Evidenced Based

The amount of unstructured (real) play that children are now engaging in has decreased over time and is having an impact on child development and their future potential. For example, the ability to engage with others and believe in themselves, to communicate, focus, imagine, cooperate, negotiate and to develop their own identity and self-belief.(Grey, 2013).

Let them Explore

Children have an unstoppable urge to explore, experiment, imagine and play. Child directed play is fundamental to the healthy development and wellbeing of individuals and communities. It helps children to learn about the world around them and their place in it. When they are in a ‘play space’, they are engaged, curious and experimental. Play helps children to process what’s happening in their world. (Lester, S. and Russell, W., 2010)

Unlock Potential

When playing, children can be anyone or anything. They are problem solvers and problem posers. Play unlocks the imagination, stimulates and quenches curiosity and reveals talents. For those who have experienced trauma, they can relax, be safe and have fun while developing crucial life skills for the 21st century. (World Economic Forum, 2018)

Further, the Nüdel Kart is a game-changer for those children who don't fit the traditional mould of school.
