Zigler (Center in Child Development and Social Policy, Yale University) assembles experts in play research, child development, and early childhood education to examine recent policy decisions affecting play in the early childhood classroom and to demonstrate the importance of play in helping children learn basic literacy skills, social awareness, and creative problem solving. Contributors summarize the developmental benefits of play, give examples of how research has been applied in practice, and offer a multicultural perspective.
