As I watch Cindy, a seven year old girl, play

molding clay, I have observed that the form of
play that she is doing is “Constructivist Play”.
Through the use of the molding clay she
created a miniature version of a carabao.
Though the model that she created is a bit
vague, the model poses one of the significant
traits of a carabao which is the big horn. It
takes a while (30 minutes) for Cindy to finish
her mini carabao. The fine motor skill of
Cindy is somewhat in good development.

On the other hand Hailee, a four year old girl

also plays with molding clay, she is also doing
“Constructivist Play”. Hailee also created her
own version of mini carabao but her version
is very vague, her model also poses the horn
but it does not have a neck instead she put
the face of the carabao on the torso. Hailee
does her own version of mini carabao
because she wants to do what her playmates
are doing. Hailee was persistent on doing her
own model but for her age, I was mesmerized
by the outcome of her play though it takes a
lot of time.
