Free Play Behaviors

Albert Einstein believes that "the game is a cutting-edge form of research." For children there is no clear division between being taught and what he or she will entertain or do to play. Through life and play, children learn and grow in various ways. By analyzing a series of four-year-old girls named Noelle, I could connect my observations to the research and theory that affect my child's social, emotional and cognitive development's development and benefits.

Even in the early days of life, the children showed gender difference in the choice of games and toys. According to Goldberg and Lewis, a child of 13 months, 32 girls and boys were playing freely, and they observed the baby 's reactions between the mother and the mother. As a result, it turns out that boys and girls reflect a big difference in interaction with mother, toys, game style. When they see their game style, the girl chooses a toy that is suitable for fine movement coordination rather than rough exercise capacity. In contrast, girls do not sit on the floor, but make the boy more active by pressing the landlord against the toy as in the figure below. Considering the mother's maternal behavior differentiated in terms of contact, vocalization and their response to their game, the authors concluded that parents strengthen the role of children gender by enhancing gender-type activities There (Goldberg & Lewis, 1969)

These children obviously can not play creative, speak loudly during the game, or can not participate in the free expression of art media. There is a dual risk of a decline in children's interest in performance games; in this age group the game plays a role in expressing emotions and these children overcome the crisis they are experiencing is needed. Defense mechanisms are usually used by preschool children. They often return to some of the common actions in the earlier, more comfortable life stages. Some people are too long to play alone with the toys that played in the early stages of development. The thumb's inhalation, bedwetting, anger of wet or dirty trousers, loss of feeling, and problems of previous meals may recur and worsen the anxiety that parents already had.
