Children learn by doing. Through active involvement with their environment, children attempt to make sense of the world around them. They learn by observing what happens when they interact with materials such as block building, painting and dramatic play, adding pieces of information to what they already know and thereby generating new understandings. Children learn simple concepts and then use these concepts to grasp more complex ideas.
Young children view the world concretely, and as they mature, their view changes. What they know at any given point will depend on the first-hand experience they have had. By interacting with their physical environment (indoor and outdoor) and their social environment (children and adults), they continually broaden their frame of reference.
