I read the new edition of’Nurture’ magazine and I liked it very much. All the published articles were very informational. I am a teacher and I would try to apply the provided information in the classroom. I must say this is an excellent effort to at least break the barriers of how people perceive ’play’ and Its importance in healthy development of children.

I believe that play helps children learn about the world in which they live. They can investigate and discover, test their theories, spatial relationships, explore cause and effect societal roles and family values. The importance of play has been very well highlighted through the content and I will try and incorporate this element for enriching the learning environment for the children.

Being an ECD teacher, I believe that play helps in language development. By observing my students during play, I have learnt that they use a vast number of words, and repeating those words enhances their language skills further. I think the topic of play has been explained artistically from different angles in the latest issue.

I received the fifth issue of Nurture and I think it’s a good contribution for promoting healthy ECD practices in our country. Developing various skills in children through an activity they love most, i.e. play, is indeed an easy strategy. I would like to suggest that Nurture should be taken out more frequently.

The magazine is excellent. It’s a good effort from Sindh Education Foundation towards Early Childhood Development. Play is a universal phenomenon and the importance of play to youngsters should not be underestimated. The fifth issue nicely emphasizes the importance of this activity.

Parents and teachers don’t always understand the importance of play and oftentimes the temptation for most of us is to stop the children from “wasting time playing” and instead spend time in what us adults believe is more constructive. It is good that your magazine has highlighted such a critical issue.
