This study examined young children's metaplay. 84 preschool subjects were videotaped as they engaged in pretend play with the same-aged peers. Dyads were identified as engaging in frequent or infrequent pretend play. Results showed that frequent pretend play dyads more engaged in request for clarification, and persuading than infrequent pretend dyads. Frequent pretend dvads were more likely to use disagreeing with reason and extending. It was concluded that developmentally useful interactions transpire outside of the pretend frame.

The purpose of this study was to investigate children's theory of mind in pretend play and story-making, from a qualitative perspective. Three-to-five year old children participated in group play and individual story-making activities. Children's narratives undertaken in two tasks were video-taped, transcribed, analyzed and reorganized into three key propositions, in consideration of the field notes that the researcher had taken. The children started their pretend play and story-making activities by 'forming connections among minds' of participants or story components. They continued to engage in pretend play and story making by 'dealing minds constructively and consistently' to keep their themes. Finally they resolved discordances in play and story-making by 'settings different mind windows and moving among them flexibly'.

This study investigated talk about mental states in pretend play, to whom mental states were attributed, and function of mental-state terms. Also, frequency of mental-state terms of pretend versus non-pretend turns was examined. Thirty 4 year old preschoolers, each paired with a self-chosen peer, were observed and videotaped during a 20-minute play session. The observations presented the following conclusions: Knowing and pretending were the most frequently expressed. Children attributed a large proportion of mental state to themselves. The mental-state terms were used to refer his or another's thoughts and beliefs, to direct interaction, and to attract the other child's attention. Mental-state talk occurred within pretend more often than within non-pretend turns.

This study investigated the proceeding patterns of constructive play with lego blocks, and the differences on the quality of constructive play and symbolic play's pretending elements. The subjects were 132 children at child care centers and kindergarten: 64 three-year-olds (36 boy, 28 girl) and 68 five-year-olds (32 boy, 36 girl). The study found three proceeding patterns in the constructive lego play. First, children engaged in constructive and symbolic play simultaneously, or they switched back and forth between symbolic and constructive play. This pattern was termed as "constructive and symbolic play simultaneously or alternatively"(type 3), and it was occurred most frequently. Secondly, children focused only on constructing structures. This pattern was termed as "constructive play only"(type 1), Thirdly, children engaged in symbolic play only after they completed building some structures. This pattern was named "symbolic play after constructive play"(type 2). The findings also indicated that children who were categorized as type 1 and 2 showed higher quality of constructive play and longer duration in play than children as type 3. Five-year-old children sustained play longer and showed higher quality in terms of elaboration, imagination, and variety (number of blocks, shape of blocks). Furthermore, children as type 3 showed a higher level of imaginative play than children as type 1 and 2, especially in terms of role, objet, and context of projection.

연구 목적 : 본 연구의 목적은 텃밭 가꾸기에서 나타나는 유아의 놀이 양상을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 통해 텃밭 가꾸기에서 유아의 놀이 지원 방안 모색을 위한 기초 연구로서 의의를 갖고자 하였다. 연구 내용 및 방법 : 2022년 8월부터 10월까지 경기도 시립 J어린이집의 만4-5세 유아13명(만 4세 9명, 만 5세 4명)을 대상으로 총 15회 참여관찰과 면담을 하였다. 수집한 자료를 전사하여 범주화한 후, 분석하였다. 결론 및 제언 : 텃밭 가꾸기에서 나타난 유아의 놀이 양상은 '교감적 놀이', '직관적 놀이', '상상적 놀이'로 나타났다. 자연을 쉽게 만날 수 있는 텃밭에서 유아는 또래 관계 속에서 자연과 정서적 교류와 감정을 공유하였다. 유아는 텃밭에서 자연과 만나며 감각적으로 직관적 놀이를 경험하였다. 유아는 텃밭과 관련된 식물과 동물, 텃밭과 관련된 사물을 가작화하고 상상력을 발휘하였다. 텃밭 가꾸기에서 유아의 놀이성이 발현되었고, 자연과 상호호혜적인 관계를 이해하여 자연에 대한 지속적인 관심을 통해 자연의 변화에 대한 민감성과 호기심이 나타났다. 텃밭 가꾸기를 체험식 또는 일회적 경험으로 이루어지기보다 장기적·지속적 경험으로 접근해야 한다.
