Play activities for the first day of school

Children learn very easily when they are having fun. So, when a play activity is conducted with the aim of purposefully teaching something, the pace and result of learning increase manifold. Play can be used for teaching new and difficult concepts easily, in a short time and in an interesting way. One only needs to keep in mind that any play activity that is used is purposeful, well planned and well prepared. Play activities are important and necessary for very young children (in the age group of 3-8 years). Schools work in different areas of development through various play activities. I am sharing some play activities that can be used for the emotional development of children, especially at the start of a new academic year
