The power of PLAY 🩵
You can’t test what play teaches.
The most important things children learn through play can’t be captured on a test.
You can’t score a child’s ability to navigate uncertainty.
You can’t quantify curiosity, or creativity, or courage.
There’s no standardized measure for how they solve a conflict on their own, negotiate a tricky structure, or recover from a failure.
Play builds the stuff life actually demands—flexibility, resilience, communication, imagination, emotional strength. The very things that fuel learning, relationships, and growth.
And that’s why protecting play matters so much. Because the richest learning is too deep, too complex, too human to be boxed up, graded, or compared.
