“Play provides opportunities for children to learn as they discover, create, improvise and imagine. When children play with other children they create social groups, test out ideas, challenge each other’s thinking and build new understandings. Play provides a supportive environment where children can ask questions, solve problems and engage in critical thinking. Play can expand children’s thinking and enhance their desire to know and to learn. In these ways play can promote positive dispositions towards learning. Children’s immersion in their play illustrates how play enables them to simply enjoy being.”

“游戏，提供了让孩子们学习的机会。他们一边玩，一边发现、创造、进步和想象。当孩子们和同伴一起游戏时，他们正在创造社交圈子，验证自己的想法，挑战对方的思考并形成新的认知。游戏，提供了辅助性的氛围，让孩子们提问，解决问题并学习批判性思考。游戏，让孩子们的思考得到延伸并增强了求知求学的欲望。从这些方面而言，游戏对于孩子们的学习有着积极的影响。孩子们沉浸在游戏中印证了游戏如何使他们享受存在。”
