Thanks for the information Brandi. :o) I think I understand a little bit about why play might be important to build my childs imagination and help him learn to communicate.I dont understand though why having an imagination is important at school. Why does my son need to play make believe to be able to learn to read and write and do math? I agree that communication is important so I communicate with my son all the time; why does he need to play to build that skill? If play is as important as you say and as your sources suggest then please explain how my child will be better academicallybecause of play. Also if play is truly that important then I should be doing more at home to help my child when hes playing (even if I believe its just playing and not important). What can I do at home to help? Thanks for helping me better understand! ~ Mrs. Fontana skeptical parent of 1st grade student
