As we all know active play has a vital role in child’s holistic development[PS1]. But parents, educators, scholars in early childhood they hold different perspective about this topic. As families are important aspect in children’s life, I choose my topic “PARENT’S PERSPECTIVE OF RISKY PLAY.” My target group is pre-schooler’s parents.



LINK WITH EYLF:


“All children have the best start in life to create a better future for the nation.” This is the vision of the Council of Australian Government and[RA2] early years learning framework[PS3] help us to understand that vision.

Framework[RA4] highlights on play-based learning. According to the framework play is the best context of children’s learning. through the play children can express themselves, enhance their curiosity and creativity, stimulates their sense of wellbeing, assist children to develop relationship and concepts, overall it has impact on their holistic development. EYLF outcome 1.1 says, children’s autonomy, Interdependence, resilience and sense of agency. Educator can see this evidence when children engage in different types of challenging play. In risky play they have opportunity to make decisions, working together to face challenges, keep persist in their attempts to be successful. Apart


of[RA5] that they are more aware of their own health and wellbeing which reflects on outcome3 (children have strong sense of wellbeing) . They use previous knowledge to face their challenges while children taking risk in their play (EYLF 4 .3 children transfer and adapt what they have learned from one context to another). Trough risky play children are using verbal and non-verbal language to achieve the goal which cover outcome 5 as well (children are effective communicator). Children feel more connected to their world through exploring, investigating, facing challenges and contribute to fair decision making. All those will happen when children challenge themselves through taking appropriate risk in their play and reflects EYLF outcome 2 (Children are connected with and contribute to their world).

NQS and Risky Play




In the National Quality Standard quality area 2 and 3 highlights about active supervision and physical environment including indoor and outdoor. In the education and care setting when educator wants to facilitate the opportunity for children to take risk in their play. Two thing they need to keep in their mind are physical environment and adequate supervision. National Quality Standard shows them the guide line. To maximize children’s engagement children’s learning. though we are encouraging children to take risk in their play, still we need to make sure that environment is safe and secure. NQS quality area 3 will give us the picture about expected physical environment in education and care setting. NQS 3.1 focus on the location, spaces, furniture, equipment, facilities which we are using for education and care service. By following their guidelines, educator will able to minimize the hazard and can maximize children’s quality play opportunity. On the other hand, quality area 2 focus on active supervision to ensure children’s health and safety. Standard 2.2, element 1 says,’ “at all times, reasonable precautions and adequate supervision ensure children are protected from harm and hazard.” Taking[RA7] risk in the play is always appreciated for children but to achieve successful outcome from their play, educators needs to have risk assessment. They need to prepare active supervision plan according to that. Active supervision doesn’t mean over shadowing children or minimizing opportunity to play. It highlights that educators need to hold high expectation children’s ability and being available themselves if they need any help. Children’s play experience should be uninterrupted and safe.

Title: Risk – Testing Boundaries



Publication details: Friday, 1 April 2016


This newsletter shows us the beneficial sides of risky play in early childhood. The writer was explaining how does risk taking opportunity in children’s play help them in real world to deal with risk as an adult. Writer was asking readers to reflect on their childhood about their experience in regards to risk taking tendency in play. Writer shared few thoughts from Early childhood experts such as Kate Stone and Christina Lipitkas (From Gowrie SA), Tim Gill (UK’s leading thinker on childhood) by highlighting their articles “Benefit risk assessment process” and “Risk and resilience”. In the newsletter writer also talked about Tim Gill’s believes that “Most children are capable of assessing managing risk, and this can be seen in their competence and confidence when they attempting risk activity.




(
https://rethinkingchildhood.com/2016/02/08/returning-antipodes-adelaide-aucland-cairns-brisbane/#more-4973)


The writer emphasis on educator role to provide opportunity for risky play. According to the writer educators need to reflect on risk and benefit before they facilitate opportunity in education and care. Practice service will help educator with ideas about risky play in education[RA9] and care. To unpack the whole concept about risky play, parent’s perspective is important as well. Because parents are very important aspect in children’s life. To see parent’s perspective more deeply writer, share some other links to read. E.g. “should I let my child take more risks?”


This reading encouraged me to think about parent’s and educator’s perspective of risky play. I choose my research topic to see parents view more deeply. Because in children’s early life parents plays a vital role for decision making. From this newsletter I get some links to further reading which provide more thoughts how might educator empower families to get more benefits for children from risky play.

TITLE: TEN WAYS TO RESTRICT CHILDREN’S FREEDOM TO PLAY: THE PROBLEM OF SURPLUS SAFETY



PUBLICATION DATES: November[RA10]


3, 2010




This article is expressing thoughts about excessive safety concern from parents and educators is leading to the reduction of children’s freedom to play. Now a day’s parents are pull out their children from the spot rather than managing the risk. As a result, left impact on children’s health and wellbeing. They are more likely to become over weight or obese and develop different ranges of health issues. This journal has admitted that taking risk in their play might have adverse outcome but they said it is a part of their development. They used the term “SURPLUS SAFETY” to described excessive risk management tendency by adults which curtail children’s freedom to play. Not only this but also sometimes policies are playing dominant role in risk management situations. Cultural difference is another component which plays an important role as well.


Writers listed ten ways, thus adult restricted children’s play. The first way is by assuming that they are the best person to manage the risk. From this attitude they put restriction on children’s learning. Because they learn through the process of trial and error which occur through play. Secondly, by focusing on safety of the play ground instead of ensuring children’s safety on other area, they are limiting their learning. from developmental perspective, they will miss out many valuable learning experiences relating to locomotion, physical and aesthetics. Thirdly they argued about the regularity role of Australian Government which might have negative impact on children’s playing. Fourthly, journal raised the questions on states role. By putting restrictions on children’s play in relation to height, using different tools on education and care; is it a state’s duty of care or an example of surplus safety? Fifthly, some assumptions highlighted on special group of children who are having injury more often. So, there is normal trend to avoid any kind of risk-taking activities for them. Writers throw the questions to readers that is that ok or not. Sixthly, another assumption is that long walking is too tiering for toddlers but physical activity is highly recommended. Seventhly, unintentional death of children is more occur in child’s home rather than in playground. Even though some hazards from playground can be controlled instead of limiting the children’s play opportunity. Eighthly, parents are often feeling guilty to let their child to experiences that may perceived as risky. Ninthly, new how housing growth and housing style in Australia limit the children’s access to participating in risky play. Lastly, children are more engaged in planned activity which minimize the opportunity of children’s free play.


This journal will give different reason of limited opportunity of risky play; including parent’s view as well. Some factors might have direct impact on parent’s thinking, some might not. Still those have significant influence on parents’ thoughts. It will bring more thoughts to my mind when I’ll prepare survey questioner for parents.

TITLE: Engaging in safe risks: A way to proper children for bigger challenges




PUBLICATION DATE: November 1st, 2015
[RA13]







In this feature an educator from Altona North Children centre (Vic) has shared her experience and perspective about children’s risky play in education and care settings. According to the writer, educator’s personal fear and preconceived idea about safety might have impact on their pedagogy practices. But it is proven by research that minimisation of risk-taking play in childhood can lead to underdeveloped motor skills and can increased to chances of chronic illness later on in life. United Nations Conventions on the Rights of the Child (UN 1989) and Early Years Learning Framework (DEEWR 2009) both documents highlight the importance of own space for children learning on the based of their interest and making sure that they need to make their optimal development.


She described herself as quite safe person but when she observed the benefits of risky play, she has changed her approach. For setting up the environment to facilitate children’s risk-taking opportunity in play she took few steps. She has documented over the period about children’s risk-taking behaviour and invited input from other educators as well. She invited family feedback through daily conversations. She set up the environment where children got more opportunity to take risk in their play. She asked the feedback from the children about their experience. And had reflective discussion with other educators. At the end of the journey they came out with some agreements. E.g. Every individual child has their own idea of taking risks in their own play. Children’s risk-taking behaviour can be affected by families and educators view.


Though my research topic is parent’s perspective on risky play, this feature will guide me to the direction for approaching to the parents as an educator. It will help to reflect myself before I approach to the parent to get to know about their views. While I’m going to prepare survey questioner for parents, implementation steps and agreements in feature will be very useful information for me.

TITLE: Parent’s and Early Childhood Educator’s Attitude and Practices in Relation to Children’s Outdoor Risky Play




PUBLICATION DATE: 8TH
April 2017

[RA15]





Now a days in modern society fear of risk limit the opportunities for children to play with excitement, exhilaration, a desire to overcome fear and feeling out of control. In one-word chances of taking risk in their play. Though it has chances of injury, still it has long time benefit on children’s holistic development. In this research journal they talked about different factors which are the determinates of children’s decision making in risky situations.


Opportunity for risky play occur both indoor and outdoor and adults are in this context act as a filter for children’s available opportunities. So, this research journal paid attention of adult’s perspective in relation to risky play for children. Here as an adult they mentioned about parents and early childhood educators. Researcher were conducting one survey among parents and educators who were attending early childhood education and care settings to get to know about their thoughts regarding risky play. For this they chose some educators from rural and metropolitan area of Australia and United States. They invited parents from same centres to participate in the survey.


From the survey report some common findings came out. Almost 40% educators and parents believe that taking risk in the play is important and it is beneficial for children’s development. Although response from rural and metropolitan are the same. Another find out from the survey is fear is the main reason from parent’s side to limit the opportunity of risky play. Interestingly, from educator’s perspective cultural differences influence their thoughts. Australian educators are much more in outdoor risky play than USA educators.


In this research journal has shown cultural differences between two countries educators. I’m really keen to see how does it impact on parents thinking as well. This journal gives me a brief idea how to conduct survey and discuss with the result. That’s inspired me to conduct survey in my work place. My workplace is work based centre where I can get opportunity to see different culture’s people view.

TITLE: Affordance for Risk-Taking and Physical Activity in Australian Early Childhood Education Settings



PUBLICATION DATE: 28th
August 2014


In this research journal author were talking about Gibson’s (1979) theory of affordance proposes. They were relating this theory in our education and care settings. According to that theory the physical environment affords different actions and behaviours. Children will perceive what they can do in the environment in relation to their individual characteristics. Hence the same feature of environment will afford different behaviour for different children. While they are explaining these, they were highlighted the importance of physical activity in the education and care settings. Children can be more benefitted from unpredictable nature of outdoor environment where they can have opportunity to take certain amount of risk to challenge themselves (Little and Wyver 2008). As in Australia 72% children are attending education and care service (Australian Government Department of Education 2014), they run a study to see potential links between outdoor play provision and the affordances in the outdoor environment and children’s opportunity for taking risk in their play in education and care settings




Based on the study report author said, most of the centre well resourced, maintained all the regularity requirements but doesn’t mean that children are actually engaged in

recommended[RA16]
level of physical activity or opportunity of risky play. The reason behind this less engagement is adult’s thoughts. They made some suggestions for those centres who need a little improvement.




This research provides insight how outdoor environment in early childhood settings support children for risk taking in their play. And although some centres have enough resource, children are not engaging in correct amount of play. One of the reasons is educator’s thoughts about risky play. Another determinate factor could be parent’s role. As educator’s and[RA17]
families working in partnership to achieve maximum outcome, it’s really needs to know parent’s thought as well. Otherwise all the initiative would not be successful if parents wouldn’t be in the same page with educators.

You need to ensure that you are referencing all sources correctly both the reference list at the end of your document in alphabetical order and your in text referencing. You must put the correct details at the beginning of each of your 5 sources as this is also incorrect or incomplete.







You would benefit form attending the learning support centre in the library to ensure that you are using academic language. It is sometimes difficult to understand your meaning as your sentence structure or word choice does not make sense. Please revisit your work and make adjustments to you literature review.







It has been outlined in webinars and mentoring session that you need between 8-10 questions in your survey, this has been exceeded. You need to revise your survey s many of the questions do not make sense and are structured poorly. You have not given the participant any instruction as to how to fill out or what to do with the survey. You also haven’t included any instruction around confidentiality.







It is important to read through the assessment criteria carefully as you have missed parts that are required. You need to identify stakeholder and outline your methodology.







You have not demonstrated an understanding of the assessment criteria and would benefit from competing this subject again next semester.








This( part A ) needs a significant review and reworking …. Grammar and referencing need attention as do the questions in the survey, as they may not provide the responses that will assist you in the second part of the assessment … Sue Payne

As we all know active play has a vital role in child’s holistic development[PS1]. But parents, educators, scholars in early childhood they hold different perspective about this topic. As families are important aspect in children’s life, I choose my topic “PARENT’S PERSPECTIVE OF RISKY PLAY.” My target group is pre-schooler’s parents.





LINK WITH EYLF:




“All children have the best start in life to create a better future for the nation.” This is the vision of the Council of Australian Government and[RA2] early years learning framework[PS3] help us to understand that vision.

Framework[RA4] highlights on play-based learning. According to the framework play is the best context of children’s learning. through the play children can express themselves, enhance their curiosity and creativity, stimulates their sense of wellbeing, assist children to develop relationship and concepts, overall it has impact on their holistic development. EYLF outcome 1.1 says, children’s autonomy, Interdependence, resilience and sense of agency. Educator can see this evidence when children engage in different types of challenging play. In risky play they have opportunity to make decisions, working together to face challenges, keep persist in their attempts to be successful. Apart


of[RA5] that they are more aware of their own health and wellbeing which reflects on outcome3 (children have strong sense of wellbeing) . They use previous knowledge to face their challenges while children taking risk in their play (EYLF 4 .3 children transfer and adapt what they have learned from one context to another). Trough risky play children are using verbal and non-verbal language to achieve the goal which cover outcome 5 as well (children are effective communicator). Children feel more connected to their world through exploring, investigating, facing challenges and contribute to fair decision making. All those will happen when children challenge themselves through taking appropriate risk in their play and reflects EYLF outcome 2 (Children are connected with and contribute to their world).

NQS and Risky Play












In the National Quality Standard quality area 2 and 3 highlights about active supervision and physical environment including indoor and outdoor. In the education and care setting when educator wants to facilitate the opportunity for children to take risk in their play. Two thing they need to keep in their mind are physical environment and adequate supervision. National Quality Standard shows them the guide line. To maximize children’s engagement children’s learning. though we are encouraging children to take risk in their play, still we need to make sure that environment is safe and secure. NQS quality area 3 will give us the picture about expected physical environment in education and care setting. NQS 3.1 focus on the location, spaces, furniture, equipment, facilities which we are using for education and care service. By following their guidelines, educator will able to minimize the hazard and can maximize children’s quality play opportunity. On the other hand, quality area 2 focus on active supervision to ensure children’s health and safety. Standard 2.2, element 1 says,’ “at all times, reasonable precautions and adequate supervision ensure children are protected from harm and hazard.” Taking[RA7] risk in the play is always appreciated for children but to achieve successful outcome from their play, educators needs to have risk assessment. They need to prepare active supervision plan according to that. Active supervision doesn’t mean over shadowing children or minimizing opportunity to play. It highlights that educators need to hold high expectation children’s ability and being available themselves if they need any help. Children’s play experience should be uninterrupted and safe.

Title: Risk – Testing Boundaries








Publication details: Friday, 1 April 2016








This newsletter shows us the beneficial sides of risky play in early childhood. The writer was explaining how does risk taking opportunity in children’s play help them in real world to deal with risk as an adult. Writer was asking readers to reflect on their childhood about their experience in regards to risk taking tendency in play. Writer shared few thoughts from Early childhood experts such as Kate Stone and Christina Lipitkas (From Gowrie SA), Tim Gill (UK’s leading thinker on childhood) by highlighting their articles “Benefit risk assessment process” and “Risk and resilience”. In the newsletter writer also talked about Tim Gill’s believes that “Most children are capable of assessing managing risk, and this can be seen in their competence and confidence when they attempting risk activity.







(
https://rethinkingchildhood.com/2016/02/08/returning-antipodes-adelaide-aucland-cairns-brisbane/#more-4973)




The writer emphasis on educator role to provide opportunity for risky play. According to the writer educators need to reflect on risk and benefit before they facilitate opportunity in education and care. Practice service will help educator with ideas about risky play in education[RA9] and care. To unpack the whole concept about risky play, parent’s perspective is important as well. Because parents are very important aspect in children’s life. To see parent’s perspective more deeply writer, share some other links to read. E.g. “should I let my child take more risks?”




This reading encouraged me to think about parent’s and educator’s perspective of risky play. I choose my research topic to see parents view more deeply. Because in children’s early life parents plays a vital role for decision making. From this newsletter I get some links to further reading which provide more thoughts how might educator empower families to get more benefits for children from risky play.

TITLE: TEN WAYS TO RESTRICT CHILDREN’S FREEDOM TO PLAY: THE PROBLEM OF SURPLUS SAFETY





PUBLICATION DATES: November[RA10]


3, 2010






This article is expressing thoughts about excessive safety concern from parents and educators is leading to the reduction of children’s freedom to play. Now a day’s parents are pull out their children from the spot rather than managing the risk. As a result, left impact on children’s health and wellbeing. They are more likely to become over weight or obese and develop different ranges of health issues. This journal has admitted that taking risk in their play might have adverse outcome but they said it is a part of their development. They used the term “SURPLUS SAFETY” to described excessive risk management tendency by adults which curtail children’s freedom to play. Not only this but also sometimes policies are playing dominant role in risk management situations. Cultural difference is another component which plays an important role as well.




Writers listed ten ways, thus adult restricted children’s play. The first way is by assuming that they are the best person to manage the risk. From this attitude they put restriction on children’s learning. Because they learn through the process of trial and error which occur through play. Secondly, by focusing on safety of the play ground instead of ensuring children’s safety on other area, they are limiting their learning. from developmental perspective, they will miss out many valuable learning experiences relating to locomotion, physical and aesthetics. Thirdly they argued about the regularity role of Australian Government which might have negative impact on children’s playing. Fourthly, journal raised the questions on states role. By putting restrictions on children’s play in relation to height, using different tools on education and care; is it a state’s duty of care or an example of surplus safety? Fifthly, some assumptions highlighted on special group of children who are having injury more often. So, there is normal trend to avoid any kind of risk-taking activities for them. Writers throw the questions to readers that is that ok or not. Sixthly, another assumption is that long walking is too tiering for toddlers but physical activity is highly recommended. Seventhly, unintentional death of children is more occur in child’s home rather than in playground. Even though some hazards from playground can be controlled instead of limiting the children’s play opportunity. Eighthly, parents are often feeling guilty to let their child to experiences that may perceived as risky. Ninthly, new how housing growth and housing style in Australia limit the children’s access to participating in risky play. Lastly, children are more engaged in planned activity which minimize the opportunity of children’s free play.




This journal will give different reason of limited opportunity of risky play; including parent’s view as well. Some factors might have direct impact on parent’s thinking, some might not. Still those have significant influence on parents’ thoughts. It will bring more thoughts to my mind when I’ll prepare survey questioner for parents.

TITLE: Engaging in safe risks: A way to proper children for bigger challenges










PUBLICATION DATE: November 1st, 2015
[RA13]













In this feature an educator from Altona North Children centre (Vic) has shared her experience and perspective about children’s risky play in education and care settings. According to the writer, educator’s personal fear and preconceived idea about safety might have impact on their pedagogy practices. But it is proven by research that minimisation of risk-taking play in childhood can lead to underdeveloped motor skills and can increased to chances of chronic illness later on in life. United Nations Conventions on the Rights of the Child (UN 1989) and Early Years Learning Framework (DEEWR 2009) both documents highlight the importance of own space for children learning on the based of their interest and making sure that they need to make their optimal development.







She described herself as quite safe person but when she observed the benefits of risky play, she has changed her approach. For setting up the environment to facilitate children’s risk-taking opportunity in play she took few steps. She has documented over the period about children’s risk-taking behaviour and invited input from other educators as well. She invited family feedback through daily conversations. She set up the environment where children got more opportunity to take risk in their play. She asked the feedback from the children about their experience. And had reflective discussion with other educators. At the end of the journey they came out with some agreements. E.g. Every individual child has their own idea of taking risks in their own play. Children’s risk-taking behaviour can be affected by families and educators view.







Though my research topic is parent’s perspective on risky play, this feature will guide me to the direction for approaching to the parents as an educator. It will help to reflect myself before I approach to the parent to get to know about their views. While I’m going to prepare survey questioner for parents, implementation steps and agreements in feature will be very useful information for me.

TITLE: Parent’s and Early Childhood Educator’s Attitude and Practices in Relation to Children’s Outdoor Risky Play










PUBLICATION DATE: 8TH
April 2017

[RA15]











Now a days in modern society fear of risk limit the opportunities for children to play with excitement, exhilaration, a desire to overcome fear and feeling out of control. In one-word chances of taking risk in their play. Though it has chances of injury, still it has long time benefit on children’s holistic development. In this research journal they talked about different factors which are the determinates of children’s decision making in risky situations.







Opportunity for risky play occur both indoor and outdoor and adults are in this context act as a filter for children’s available opportunities. So, this research journal paid attention of adult’s perspective in relation to risky play for children. Here as an adult they mentioned about parents and early childhood educators. Researcher were conducting one survey among parents and educators who were attending early childhood education and care settings to get to know about their thoughts regarding risky play. For this they chose some educators from rural and metropolitan area of Australia and United States. They invited parents from same centres to participate in the survey.







From the survey report some common findings came out. Almost 40% educators and parents believe that taking risk in the play is important and it is beneficial for children’s development. Although response from rural and metropolitan are the same. Another find out from the survey is fear is the main reason from parent’s side to limit the opportunity of risky play. Interestingly, from educator’s perspective cultural differences influence their thoughts. Australian educators are much more in outdoor risky play than USA educators.







In this research journal has shown cultural differences between two countries educators. I’m really keen to see how does it impact on parents thinking as well. This journal gives me a brief idea how to conduct survey and discuss with the result. That’s inspired me to conduct survey in my work place. My workplace is work based centre where I can get opportunity to see different culture’s people view.

TITLE: Affordance for Risk-Taking and Physical Activity in Australian Early Childhood Education Settings









PUBLICATION DATE: 28th
August 2014








In this research journal author were talking about Gibson’s (1979) theory of affordance proposes. They were relating this theory in our education and care settings. According to that theory the physical environment affords different actions and behaviours. Children will perceive what they can do in the environment in relation to their individual characteristics. Hence the same feature of environment will afford different behaviour for different children. While they are explaining these, they were highlighted the importance of physical activity in the education and care settings. Children can be more benefitted from unpredictable nature of outdoor environment where they can have opportunity to take certain amount of risk to challenge themselves (Little and Wyver 2008). As in Australia 72% children are attending education and care service (Australian Government Department of Education 2014), they run a study to see potential links between outdoor play provision and the affordances in the outdoor environment and children’s opportunity for taking risk in their play in education and care settings







Based on the study report author said, most of the centre well resourced, maintained all the regularity requirements but doesn’t mean that children are actually engaged in

recommended[RA16]
level of physical activity or opportunity of risky play. The reason behind this less engagement is adult’s thoughts. They made some suggestions for those centres who need a little improvement.








This research provides insight how outdoor environment in early childhood settings support children for risk taking in their play. And although some centres have enough resource, children are not engaging in correct amount of play. One of the reasons is educator’s thoughts about risky play. Another determinate factor could be parent’s role. As educator’s and[RA17]
families working in partnership to achieve maximum outcome, it’s really needs to know parent’s thought as well. Otherwise all the initiative would not be successful if parents wouldn’t be in the same page with educators.

You would benefit form attending the learning support centre in the library to ensure that you are using academic language. It is sometimes difficult to understand your meaning as your sentence structure or word choice does not make sense. Please revisit your work and make adjustments to you literature review.







It has been outlined in webinars and mentoring session that you need between 8-10 questions in your survey, this has been exceeded. You need to revise your survey s many of the questions do not make sense and are structured poorly. You have not given the participant any instruction as to how to fill out or what to do with the survey. You also haven’t included any instruction around confidentiality.







It is important to read through the assessment criteria carefully as you have missed parts that are required. You need to identify stakeholder and outline your methodology.







You have not demonstrated an understanding of the assessment criteria and would benefit from competing this subject again next semester.








This( part A ) needs a significant review and reworking …. Grammar and referencing need attention as do the questions in the survey, as they may not provide the responses that will assist you in the second part of the assessment … Sue Payne

Active play can be referred to the physical and the outdoor activities that are performed by the children. It is considered to be one of the important aspects for the growth and development of children. We all know that active play has a vital role in child’s holistic development. But parents, educators, scholars in early childhood they hold different perspective about this topic. As families are important aspect in children’s life, I choose my topic “PARENT’S PERSPECTIVE OF RISKY PLAY.” My target group is pre-schooler’s parents.    Comment by Payne, Susanne: You need to write with academic tone and back up statements such as this
LINK WITH EYLF:
“All children have the best start in life to create a better future for the nation.” This is the vision of the Council of Australian Government and early years learning framework, framed in the year of 2010, help us to comprehend that vision (White & Fleer, 2019). The EYLF Framework highlights on play-based learning. As per the framework , risk play is the best setting of youngsters' learning. Through the play youngsters can convey what needs be, improve their interest and inventiveness, invigorates their feeling of prosperity, help kids to create relationship and ideas, in general it has sway on their all encompassing advancement. EYLF outcome 1.1 says, risk play helps in advancing autonomy of the children, Interdependence, versatility and feeling of agency. Teacher can see this proof when kids participate in various sorts of testing play. In risky play they have chance to decide, cooperate to face difficulties, be diligent in their endeavours to be effective. Apart from that they are more aware of their own health and wellbeing which reflects on outcome3 (children have strong sense of wellbeing). They use previous knowledge that is accumulated from taking risk in their play in order to face their challenges. (EYLF 4 .3 children transfer and adapt what they have learned from one context to another). Trough risky play children are using verbal and non-verbal language to achieve the goal which cover outcome 5 as well (children are effective communicator). Children feel more connected to their world through exploring, investigating, facing challenges and contribute to fair decision making. All those will happen when children challenge themselves through taking appropriate risk in their play and reflects EYLF outcome 2 (Children are connected with and contribute to their world).    Comment by Rachael Antcliffe: Date?    Comment by Payne, Susanne: Reference ?    Comment by Rachael Antcliffe: Do you mean the EYLF?

NQS and Risky Play
In the National Quality Standard quality area 2 and 3 highlights about active supervision and physical environment including indoor and outdoor. In the education and care setting when educator wants to facilitate the opportunity for children to take risk in their play, there are two things they need to keep in their minds which include physical environment and adequate supervision. National Quality Standard is a framework that acts as the guide line. To maximize children engagement and children learning we still need to make sure that environment is safe and secure even though we are encouraging children to take risk in their play. NQS quality area 3 will give us the picture about expected physical environment in education and care setting. NQS 3.1 focus on the location, spaces, furniture, equipment, facilities which we are using for education and care service. By following their guidelines, educator will able to minimize the hazard and can maximize children’s quality play...
