The idea
Play draws motor and cognitive skills together, as when a spoon becomes a tool for banging, stirring and feeding.
In practice
A baby pointing at a dog by the first birthday, and playing patty-cake by eighteen months.
Where people slip
Play is an exam keyword under cognitive development, not only a pastime; it is where new skills are practised.
