The 2 Stay, Play and Learn trial, gives parents the chance to stay and take part in activities such as crafting, role play, construction and story time alongside their children, as a way of encouraging and supporting their learning and development.
Parents also have the option of participating in adult learning opportunities, with the guidance and support of a qualified early years staff team.
Running at Kirkhill Primary School, the initiative is also due to be offered at Manor Park Learning Centre in Aberdeen shortly. It forms part of the Scottish Government's drive to almost double ELC provision and to look at new and different models that fit the needs of both parents and children.
The trial has been developed in partnership with Aberdeen City Council and Early Years Scotland (EYS).
Mr McDonald is quoted as saying: "It has been fantastic to see this trial in action and to see parents really getting involved in playing and having fun alongside their children – we know that encouraging children's learning in this way is key to closing the attainment gap.
"We are committed to ensuring this type of high quality early learning and childcare is available to parents across Scotland and by exploring a range of delivery models we will be better able to understand what parents and children need and want."
