- small world play
- role play
- sand and water play
- small and large construction
- mark-making
- puzzles
- games
- large physical equipment (such as bikes, rockers, slides, stilts, balance beams, etc)
- open ended resources for imaginative play (boxes, crates, fabric, tubes, etc)
- malleable materials
- creative and craft materials
