“Play is correlated to the development
of the brain’s frontal cortex,
which is the important brain region
responsible for much of what we call cognition:
discriminating relevant from irrelevant information,
monitoring and organizing our own thoughts
and feelings, and planning for the future
. . . . .In play we can imagine and experience situations
we have never encountered before
and learn from them.”
