EXCELLANT!! A++++ observation!!!! You are correct in saying that play and imagination are extremely important in learning to solve lifes everyday problems creatively! Today’s curriculum is simply too focussed on the end results of State and Federal mandated testing. We have lost funding for art, taken away hours of play for the younger set, and wonder why we have fewer original ideas…..Thank you for the most excellant scientific observation!! GREAT JOB!!! :>)
