In a review of early childhood education, researchers have emphasized the importance of play-based learning as a crucial component in developing cognitive skills in children. They argue that children who engage in creative play demonstrate enhanced problem-solving abilities and improved social interactions. However, the authors acknowledge that limited resources in underfunded schools may hinder the implementation of such programs, leading to reliance on more traditional, structured learning environments. To address this issue, they propose seeking additional funding sources and community support to enhance play-based learning opportunities for all children.
