Play, as a child or as an adult, is as essential as eating and sleeping.
Play brings endless hours of enjoyment and helps people of every age learn about themselves and the world around them. Keeping the physical body healthy is a well-known benefit of play, but few people realize how play stimulates the mind and positive emotions.
