Great article! This rings so true for me. I especially connected with your point that "The fuel for growth must come from some degree of exploration, creativity, and intrinsic motivation". Thanks for sharing!
Excellent article! Play, as it spontaneously arises among young people, is a very precious , creative activity whose roots are already present among simpler forms of life. Young mammals almost always have it as a highly developed activity. For human children, play consists primarily of two activities. The first is the attempting and then practicing of new skills. The second function of play is to provide an opportunity for discharge, and then go back to playing.
