Facilitating Play Lanyard

The Facilitating Play Lanyard provides educators, therapists, support staff, and caregivers with practical prompts and strategies for supporting play-based learning. Designed as a quick-reference tool, this lanyard helps adults know when to join play, when to step back, how to expand interactions, and how to encourage communication, problem-solving, creativity, and social engagement. Whether supporting individual children, peer interactions, or classroom play experiences, this resource promotes intentional adult facilitation while preserving child-led exploration.
