Play is the primary form of early childhood activity. It is an embodiment of the natural laws of children's physical and mental development and their inherent nature. The nature of games is their interest. They integrate activity, imitation, and competition, catering to children's tendencies to move, explore, and compete. The function of games is their entertainment value. Through shared, mutual, and self-entertainment, children receive subtle self-education and mutual education. In play, they invigorate their bodies and minds, developing happily.
Games are filled with a sense of childhood charm. From the joy of movement, group dynamics, wildness, and creativity, they cultivate noble interests and develop multiple abilities, forging resilient characters and strong physiques. This promotes the harmonious and comprehensive development of children.
Child education cannot be without games. Successful child education relies on the education of games and the gamification of education. Children's education and teaching should be gamified; League education and League activities should be even more so. "Restoring children to happiness" has become a task for society as a whole. "Experiencing happiness in games, growing happily in happiness, and developing comprehensively in growth" is the best gift we prepare for children, and this book is the best interpretation of "ensuring every child has a happy childhood and a bright future."
