| Synopsis: |
In this attempt to cover all aspects of children's make-believe, the authors examine how imaginative play begins and develops, from the infant's first smiles to the toddler's engagement in social pretend play. They provide examples and research evidence on the young child's invocation of imaginary friends, the adolescent's daring, rule-governed games, and the adult's private imagery and inner thought. In chapters that should be important to parents and policymakers, the authors discuss television and the imagination, the healing function of play, and the effects of playfulness and creativity throughout the life span. |
