Abstract [en]

The Importance of Play for Language Development – How can play-based methods

support language development in young children?

Play-based learning can support children`s language development. The purpose of this literature review is to examine, through a comparative analysis of previous research, how play-based methods can promote language development in young children (ages four to twelve). The study is based on nine scientific articles that focus on play-based methods, language development, and cognitive development. Through a thematic analysis, the results of the studies were reviewed and compared to identify patterns, similarities and differences in the articles. The purpose of our literature review is to investigate how play-based methods can support language development in young children by analyzing previous research. In summary, our literature review shows that play-based methods can generally contribute to and alsostrengthen cognitive and social development, motivation, engagement and communication skills.

Abstract [sv]

Lekbaserat lärande kan på olika sätt stödja barns språkliga utveckling. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie är att genom en jämförande analys av tidigare forskning, undersöka hur lekbaserade metoder kan främja språkutveckling hos barn i yngre åldrar (fyra till tolv år). Underlaget i studien bygger på nio vetenskapliga studier som behandlar lekbaserade metoder, språkutveckling samt kognitiv utveckling. Genom en tematisk analys granskades och jämfördes studiernas resultat för att identifiera återkommande mönster, likheter och skillnader i artiklarna. Sammanfattningsvis visar vår litteraturstudie att lekbaserade metoder generellt, kan bidra till barns språkutveckling och även stärka kognitiv och social utveckling, motivation, engagemang samt kommunikationsförmåga.
