Links to Philosophies

There are many different philosophies within early childhood education such as Montessori, Steiner, Pasifika and Reggio Emilia. A philosophy ‘guides your choices, behaviours, thoughts and feelings’ (Krause et al, 2010, p. xxvii). All of these philosophies allow rough play within their early childhood environments just at different levels as each individual teacher influences their philosophy. These philosophies are all very centered by the child’s interests so if a child wanted to explore their learning through rough play it would be greatly supported.
