Play and Work in Child Mental Development
The Institute's Bureau of Pedology discusses the effect of play on mental development and education. It argues that fear of play hindering work is groundless, asserting play builds vitality, nervous energy, skill, and focused enthusiasm, while compulsory obedience stifles activity and depresses vitality. Modern psychology favors joyful recreation as a source of power and mental growth.
