Why Play?
Stimulates nerve growth in the areas of the brain that
1) discriminate relevant from irrelevant information
2) monitor and organize our own thoughts and feelings
3) plan for the future
Through play, the brain is making sense of how the world works by
1) imagining possibilities
2) simulating what might be
3) testing against what actually is
