The Children's Play Team

Every child has a natural instinct to play, which needs to be nurtured to enable them to develop.

Play encompasses children's behaviour which is freely chosen, personally directed and intrinsically motivated.  It is performed for no external goal or reward, so children choose WHAT they do, HOW they do it, and WHY they do it.

"Play is a child's first claim on the community. No community can infringe that right without doing deep and enduring harm to the minds and bodies of its citizens."
(Lloyd George, 1926)
