 | Resources What We Know About Play: - Play in Practice: Case Studies in Young Children's Play, by Cheryl Render Brown and Catherine Marchant includes excellent training cases emanating from play theory and real life practice with children. - Several studies have been designed to empirically test the developmental impact of toys that can be used to depict violent activities. Playing for Keeps is currently working on a position paper that will review the research on this topic and present useful suggestions to parents and early childhood educators and caregivers to help them make decisions about such products. More to come... If you have any suggestions for research that is begging to be done, feel free to contact Executive Director Susan Oliver at soliver@playingforkeeps.org. |

Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning....They have to play with what they know to be true in order to find out more, and then they can use what they learn in new forms of play. --Fred Rogers of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood  | | |
