You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation. - Plato
When children pretend, they're using their imaginations to move beyond the bounds of reality. A stick can be a magicwand. A sock can be a puppet. A small child can be a superhero. Mr. Fred Rogers
Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from regular learning. But for children, play is serious learning. -- Mr. Rogers
