This document discusses theories of play development in children. It describes Smilansky's four stages of play: functional play, constructive play, dramatic play, and games with rules. It also outlines Mildred Parten's six stages of social play: unoccupied behavior, solitary independent play, onlooker behavior, parallel play, associative play, and cooperative/organized supplementary play. Examples are provided for different types of play. Overall, the document presents stages and theories of how children's play behaviors develop and become more complex over time.

PARTEN’S SIX STAGES OF PLAY SMILANSKY’S FOUR STAGES OF PLAY FUNCTIONAL PLAY
-a form of play in which children use their senses
and muscles to experiment with materials and learn how things go together. It satisfies children's need to be active and to explore. Typically, in functional play, children repeat their actions over and over while talking to themselves about what they are doing. EXAMPLES OF FUNCTIONAL PLAY
• Bang their spoons on the table
• Shaking rattle
• Dropping objects repeatedly
• Opening and closing things
• Trowing objects
• Pushing a toy back and forth
CONSTRUCTIVE PLAY
-this occurs when children begin to
manipulate materials to create objects and patterns. They may not be representational initially but are the child’s attempts at working with the materials to produce an effect. EXAMPLES OF CONSTRUCTIVE PLAY DRAMATIC PLAY
-is a form of symbolic play where a child pretends
to take on a role of someone else, imitating actions and speech from earlier observed situations. When another person becomes involved in the play, it is called socio-dramatic play. EXAMPLES OF DRAMATIC PLAY SIX CRITERIA OF DRAMATIC PLAY
1. Imitative role play - The child undertakes a make-
believe role and expresses it in an imitative action and/or verbalization.
2. Make-believe with regard to objects - Actions or
verbal descriptions and/or materials or toys that are not replicas of the object itself are substituted for real objects SIX CRITERIA OF DRAMATIC PLAY
3. Verbal make-believe with regard to actions and
situations - Verbal dialog takes the place of body movements. Example: “Let’s pretend I cooked the dinner, and now I am setting the table” when only the last activity is actually imitated.
4. Persistence in role play - The pretend play episode
lasts for at least 10 minutes. SIX CRITERIA OF DRAMATIC PLAY
5. Interaction - At least two players interact within the
context of a play episode.
6. Verbal communication - There is some verbal
interaction with others related to the play episode. GAMES WITH RULES
Following rules can be difficult for children just
beginning to play games. They may want to change the rules to make it easier to win. Or they may collapse into tears when they lose. Gradually, they grasp the fi xed nature of rules and understand that rules apply to all players. Th ey come to terms with winning sometimes and losing other times MILDRED PARTEN
An early theorist who focused on social play and its
development is Mildred Parten, who observed children in the first half of the 20th century.
Parten focused on the different types of social play. In her
research she discovered that children of different ages actually played together differently. They were capable of different levels or categories of social play. Her categories of social play are still a useful tool to help focus us on how social play changes and develops at different stages of our PARTEN’S SIX STAGES OF PLAY
• Unoccupied behaviour - not engaged in any activity
• Solitary independent play - child playing alone, no other
children within 1 meter (3 feet)
• Onlooker behaviour - child observing others play but not
joining in PARTEN’S SIX STAGES OF PLAY
• Parallel play - child playing next to others without verbal
interaction
• Associative play - verbal interaction, but few attempts
to organize the play situation
• Co-operative or organized supplementary play - each
child taking an active role to plan and structure the play situation while collaborating with each other. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING! -END- PREPARED BY: GALILEE P. PATDU
