Heuristic play is a wonderful opportunity to capitalise on toddlers’
curiosity about the objects that make up the world around them. The
resources which make up this set are not be the kinds of objects
traditionally thought of as toys for young children but they provide
equally valuable opportunities for extending children’s learning. There
is no right and wrong way to play with Heuristic resources so everyone’s
ideas are equally valid and worthwhile. The open ended nature of the
resources means that all toddlers can explore and investigate in their
own way, applying their own creative ideas and building on their own
experiences.
