The playful route

  Play is most often associated with children or our friendly four legged friends.  Play might mean something very different to various groups of people: it could be something that takes place outside, something noisy, a learning process or pure escapism.  Children from all over the world engage in play of some form; from the quiet child giving full concentration to a puzzle to poverty stricken places where mundane objects may become a prop or take on a life of its own.  People have creative minds which are supposed to problem solve, resolve and make suggestions.  There is no doubt that play has a crucial role in preparing children for the adult world. That world can be competitive, scary and challenging. Schools now have break time and recreation with the term 'playtime' being used less.  Children chatter, eat their snack and some schools have a spot or a system where everyone is included.  Play may not come easy for some or a particular setting is more appropriate/fitting.
