Abstract

Abstract: This article examines the impact of playful strategies on child development during the initial level in the Dominican Republic. Through a theoretical review and a detailed methodological analysis, the importance of playful strategies as effective pedagogical tools to promote the comprehensive learning of children in this crucial stage of their lives is highlighted. A comprehensive review of literature and research in the field of early education demonstrates the cognitive, emotional, and social benefits that play provides to preschool children. Additionally, various strategies and approaches used by educators to integrate play effectively are analyzed, highlighting its ability to stimulate creativity, imagination, problem-solving, and social skill development. Empirical findings reveal how playful activities promote children's cognitive, social, and emotional development. This article emphasizes the importance of recognizing and valuing play as an essential activity for child development and advocates for greater integration of play strategies in early education programs.
