Have you ever wondered why children will do repeated tasks? Whether it is ordering items, dumping buckets, hiding under their bed, or building the same block tower over and over? Early childhood theorist Piaget suggests that these repeated actions are the basis for learning- "schematic play". Trial/error inquiry based play resulting in multiple outcomes support the theory and why we should support children's interests. When parents/teachers stifle this process we are taking away the fundamental "natural" process of learning in children- even if it means a child is going to empty our pots and pans from our cupboard everyday. ❤️ If you feel inclined, post below your child's repeated behavior and we can suggest ways of enhancing their experience.
