Child-led Play

Child-Led Play is a play-based inclusion practice in which the child assumes primary control over the play activity’s content, direction, and decision-making, distinguishing it from adult-guided or structured play approaches by prioritizing the child’s autonomy, interests, and initiative in the learning and developmental process.
