EYFS Activities To Encourage Development

In our other EYFS blogs We’ve explained that the EYFS is a set of standards and requirements that must be followed by providers of care for children up to the age of 5. So that’s pre-schools, nurseries and childminders.

The importance of encouraged development

Encouraging the development of the children in your care is extremely important as it is likely to have a major impact on the rest of their lives. Children make physical, cognitive and creative developmental progress mostly through play. Even though activities might be associated more closely with one area of development, most play-centred activities contribute to the overall healthy development of children.

Activities for your setting

We’ve had a look for some great activities that you can do in your childcare settings to help encourage the children’s gross and fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, strength, and dexterity.
