As look back to my kindergarten and toddler years I see “play” as the time where there was not wright or wrong way of doing something.

I would also use my rag dolls/Barbie’s to also play family as one would guess be the mom while the doll would be my child, on other occasions when playing dependently …show more content…

    The Tuesday, March 28 performance of Ithaca Colleges production of The Cradle Will Rock emphasizes the Brechtian element of distancing the audience from the performance that Blitzstein 's original script lacks. Before the show began, the actors and the stage manager casually roamed about the stage, at times talking with friends in the audience or each other, played a few notes on the piano, and did microphone checks–all out of character. From the spectators ' first moments in the theatre, a clear distinction between the actors and their characters can be seen. Throughout the play, the actors helped move around various props on wheels, such as the piano, a bar counter, and pews. In addition, arching from stage right to left and arching

In the course of play, children are learning, growing, gaining new skills, and testing new experiences (Thompson, Stanford, 1981). My cousin played with the Child Life Specialists as part of his treatment in order to stay distracted from the pain in his limbs and especially the IV. The distractions encouraged him to use his limbs where he had earlier refused. They used the in-room television to play games while he was on the IV.

Children develop within a society that is gender-specific when it comes to social and behavioral norms. These come from the family’s structure, how they play with others and by themselves, and school.
