Open-ended materials are items that can be used by themselves or with other materials. They can be carried, lined up, redesigned, taken apart, moved and put back together in multiple ways
Ages Appropriate for ages 3+
Purpose Open-ended play enables children to be creative, engage in decision making and in problem solving. By exploring the materials, children become architects, designers, builders, explorers, archaeologists, artists, gardeners, inventors, teachers and learners.
Questions
