Art 133 AM 22 October 2015 Play is an exploration of the imagination. There are many ways to play, through toys, art, dance, games, and much more. Play can help lighten a mood and enhance creativity. For generations of people, games have become a tool for solving problems as well as a vehicle for self-expression and self-exploration. (Pink, 2005, p 192) Through play, children develop new ways to understand relationships. When playing with a baby doll or action figure, children are bringing that character to life. They are learning to play a different role while at the same time understanding someone elses role. (Jaquith, 2012, p 69) There is no right or wrong in play. Playing is all about using imagination and creating scenes, images, or ideas in an open environment. In the classroom, it is important for students to have some playtime to express themselves. In a surprise studio given this week, students were able to create whatever their mind desired. This gave endless options and a world of success for students to be able to create something with no direct instructions. This lead the classroom to run with whatever idea came to mind. As Albert Einstein says, Creativity is intelligence having fun. Reference Pink, D. (2005). A Whole New Mind. Toronto, Ontario: Penguin Group. Testing the World through Play and Art. (2012). In D.
