When you see a baby wiggle to reach a rattle, a toddler stacking blocks, or a preschooler pretending to fly a rocket ship, you are watching children “in the zone”—engaged, exploring, and discovering. The first three years offer rich opportunities for learning that unfolds through play with adults, siblings, and peers. Learn more about how these play skills emerge and what you can do to support play in infants and toddlers in ZTT’s booklet The Power of Play, available in English and Spanish.
Let’s Play! is a free app from ZTT with fun activities, organized by age and routine, for family members and providers to use to support a young child’s early learning. With Let’s Play you can search for play-based activities for children from birth to 5 years old, snap a photo of a child playing, and share activities with other.
The Let’s Play app is available from iTunes or the Google Play Store
