A Way to Know the World

A game shouldn’t be something designed to occupy children’s spare time so they will leave us alone and play by themselves.

Children want to learn from games

They have a craving to know

To take apart, to break,

To do.

Children look at every moment in life

As an opportunity

To know the world.

Referring to games as “games” is our mistake. Children don’t want merely to play; they want to understand as much as they can what lies behind everything, and how everything is connected.
