Welcome to Teach Play-based Learning

Website developed by Jeana Downey, MA

  "Too often we give our children answers to remember...

                                                  ...rather than problems to solve."

Teach Play-based Learning is a web site developed in conjunction with my Masters in Education at Sonoma State University.
Blackboard
The purpose of developing this website is to enhance the value of a play-based approach through providing seminars to Preschool and Child Care Staff in the San Diego County area. 

This website will provide a variety of tools which define play, and how it may be used in an Early Childhood Education setting.

Included on this website are:

  • References to research articles which support play in education
  • Links to websites of popular Early Childhood Education approaches which use play in their curriculum
  • Descriptions of four seminars which have been developed to support educators in promoting a play-based curriculum in their teaching enviornment, while still fulfilling the Desired Results Developmental Profile of California.
For a complete Desired Results form, please visit the following website:
