Research shows that parents and caregivers have an important role in supporting early child development and this can happen through play! Play&Learn provides a variety of expert-reviewed activities that support a child's growth. Activities focus on practicing skills in one of four developmental domains: Thinking & Learning, Social & Emotional, Movement and Language.
Our collection of activities has been chosen to be beneficial for one of three age groups: toddlers (1.5 to 2.5 years); preschoolers (over 2.5 years to 4 years); and kindergarteners (over 4 years to 6 years). Most Play&Learn activities can be completed in less than 15 minutes and require little equipment to get started. Suggestions are provided to make the activities easier or more challenging depending on your child's unique capabilities.
Developed by experts at McMaster University, Play&Learn makes playtime fun for everyone. Learn more at
