Quote

Play is being eradicated from childhood education. In schools across the United States and around the globe, childhood play is being decreased, devalued, eliminated, and forgotten. Play is being replaced by incorrect, counterproductive education practices that can lead to excessive stress, disengagement from school, fear of failure, lack of motivation to learn, and declining well-being and life satisfaction for millions of children around the world.
