When parents think about improving a child’s focus, organisation, or problem-solving, they often picture more practice or structured academic work. Yet many of the skills behind learning - known as executive function - develop strongly through play. As Jerlyn Tong explains, games, puzzles, and strategy activities naturally require children to remember rules, manage impulses, adapt to changes, and plan. This is why play is often built into educational therapy. It creates an engaging space where children practise complex thinking skills while staying motivated.
