Montclair State University Center for Autism and Early Childhood Mental Health


In this workshop, participants will gain an understanding of the value of play during the early childhood years, what it looks like in a preschool classroom, and how it helps all children build academic readiness skills, age-appropriate social skills, and positive approaches to learning. In addition, early childhood professionals will learn how they can support preschoolers with special needs through engaging in play with their peers in integrated classrooms and general education activities. Participants will also develop an understanding of how relationships and interactions between adults and children impact a child's learning and success.
