Not every toy needs a “right way” to be played with. In Part 2, I explore open-ended play - what it really means, how it supports problem-solving and creativity, and why it can help kids play longer and more independently.
I share examples of open-ended toys, tips for balancing them with more structured options, and how to encourage imaginative play without needing to constantly direct or entertain.
