Creative and organized play both have there key building skills important to a childs growth.In the following we will go in depth with the two type of play.
Creative play has some very big building aspects to it, Imagination is key to successfully setting goals. Without an healthy imagination a goal would not exsist, if i said my goal is to be a racecar driver, i would not set that goal if i didnt imagine how fun and exciting the career would be. Creative play also supports a social aspect. When a child is playing with his/her friends, they have an infinate number of choices to choose from (the sky is the limit). They can build fort, pretend the carpet in the house is hot lava, and create there own form of games.
Organized play has specific building aspects key in build responsiblity, commitment, and pride. Examples of organized play would be sport, music, and many other activities. Building these are important to getting a career and being successfull.

In combining both plays it will be a fun and crutial learning period for them. Creative and organized play both can benifit a child and poses important skill building

Play provides a wide range of benefits, including socio-emotional health, physical health, social learning, improvement of problem solving skills, and improved self-regulation.

There is also some personal play involved in their sociodramatic play. The children involved in the play worked to make a family having dinner, which is great example of how this will prepare them for One of the kids did not understand how turn on the stove and the stove top. Another kid taught the others how to season the food. Another kid thought that they should try to make something for the teachers in the gym. They worked together to make a cheeseburger and pizza.
Many children enjoy outdoor play, all aspects of development and learning are related in play. When children have ample time to play, their style of play will grow in how complex and also socially demanding it will become, for example as children maybe grow older they will choose who they will want in their friendship groups to play with them. As children play they are able to explore different materials in their environment and also discover different properties. As play continues children are able to use their knowledge of materials to play imaginatively with
An Article by Dr. Leong and Dr. Bodrova (2016) stated that play is beneficial to children’s learning especially when it reaches a certain degree of complexity. When they engage in play activities most of their early years, they learn to delay gratification and to prioritize their goals and actions. They also learn to consider the perspectives and needs of other people and to represent things significantly to regulate their behavior and actions in a cautious, intentional way.
All children play and it is something that most children do because they are having fun, but without realising children are developing and learning skills when they are engaged in play. Play helps stimulate the mind as it is practical and gives children the chance to explore and experience new situations. It can also ensure that children get to think by themselves and be spontaneous as they control their own play. Children get the chance to be creative and imaginative which develops independence for children. Play is vital for child development and helps children develop five main areas of development:
Engaging activities not only support different learning styles, but also bring pleasure to children, when they feel good about what they are doing they will want to do explore more, and thus the pleasure reinforces a child’s drive to continue playing/learning. Open-ended play is ...

...ctive. Play is an essential learning tool and one that must not be ignored within the classroom. It is a catalyst to help children develop socially, emotionally, physically and cognitively.

I think it is very important for children to engage in imaginative and creative play. The reason I say this is because, there are so many children out here in the world being forced to play the sports they dont want to play. Meanwhile, we have other teens and young adults playing the sports they want to play. Yes children need to experience creative paly to learn how to be themselves. They need to learn how to become independent responisible thinkers. With all of these things been said this brings me to my next subject.
Organized activities are important in the lives of our children. Such activities strengthen the overall attitude of a child. Structured activities help children learn social skills. Group programs also teach responsibility. Organized functions help children develop a healthy attitude about themselves and others.

Their results proved that the play condition positively effects self-regulation and learning processes. These results are usually seen with creativity and during problem solving and not in recalling information. In an earlier study conducted by Whitebread et al (2009), 16 preschool aged children were studied, in order to determine the difference between a taught condition and play condition. In addition, a spatial task was added utilizing a magnetic shape game. In the play condition, children were to play with the magnetic board game and then take part in an educational task. The taught group was taught how to use the magnetic game and then they took part in the task. The play group was found to have a higher persistence, originality, and level of involvement during the matching task when compared to the taught group. These results are consistent with the abundance of research of the benefits of play as it relates to self- regulation with
Creative Arts in early childhood education refers to children’s participation in a variety of activities that engage their minds, bodies and senses (Sinclair, Jeanneret & O’Toole, 2012; Kearns, 2017); to inspire all children with the opportunity for creative and imaginative expression. Duffy (2006) and Sinclair et al. (2012) state that creativity is the process where children use their imagination to problem solve, develop new ideas, independence and flexibility to accomplish tasks. Furthermore, when educators foster creativity, they are assisting children in making meaning through play and developing their growing capacity to communicate, collaborate and think critically to meet the demands of life in the 21st century (Duffy, 2006; Korn-Bursztyn, 2012; Sinclair et al., 2012).
By interacting with others in play settings, children learn social rules such as, taking turns, trade, cooperation, sharing, rules, and mixing with other. They discover scenes and stories, solve problems, and negotiate their idea through social barriers. They know what they want to do and work conscientiously to do it. they learn the powerful lesson of pursuing their own ideas to a successful conclusion. Also, support most children progress from an egocentric view of the world to an understanding of the importance of social skills and rules, they learn that games such as follows the Leader, baseball, and soccer cannot work without everyone obeying to the same set of rules. It teaches children life has rules (laws) that we all must follow to function effectively. Research shows that children who involve “(in complex forms of socio-dramatic play have greater language skills than non-players, better social skills, more empathy, more imagination, and more of the subtle capacity to know what others mean. They are less aggressive and show more self-control and higher levels of thinking”.
