How this product aligns with the EYLF
Supporting play-based learning and inquiry
The Oslo Standard Round Unit serves as an accessible and inviting space for children to engage in play-based learning. By providing a central location for resources and toys, it encourages children to explore their interests, make choices, and initiate their own learning experiences, fostering a sense of agency and independence.

The design of the Oslo unit allows children to access materials from all sides, promoting a sense of comfort and ease in their learning environment. This accessibility supports children in developing self-help skills as they independently select and return resources, contributing to their overall sense of wellbeing and confidence in their abilities.
