Child-led play, also known as "free play," allows children to choose their toys and activities, giving them the freedom to decide how they want to play. Early years settings support this by providing accessible resources for children to self-serve. The activities children engage in during this type of play vary depending on their age, developmental stage, and the resources available. It's common for children to mix different materials, like using grass and water to pretend they're cooking. Adults can participate in child-led play, but they follow the children's lead and instructions.
