Play is an overlooked but effective economic development, learning, management, strategic and training  tool
 
 
 
Play is  a process that provides:
  • Anticipation - expectation, wonder, curiosity, anxiety, uncertainty, risk.
  • Surprise - a-ha moments, discovery, a new sensation or idea, or shifting perspective
  • Pleasure - it feels good
  • Understanding - new knowledge, application of ideas
  • Strength - empowerment, confidence, new skills
  • Poise - grace, contentment, composure, and sense of balance in life/school
 
Parents naturally want to play with their children. Serious  content can be combined with play. Participants will play and learn the content  quickly without realizing they are being trained or developed. Play can change the culture and mindsets of participants in any institution, public or private. Even the difficult to change educational systems can be changed with play if it is introduced into the curriculum lineup.

Our work evolves around play and technology as invention and innovation is changing the world every 5-7 years. Corporate America is complaining about the lack of skills deeming schools failures. The 13 year lengthy process of cumulative learning in schools to prepare children and their parents for the future world is not working.
 
However in the 21st century the new product is intellectual property, all in the brain. Play accelerates intellectual property, the automation its creates, the manufacturing and information technology it powers.
