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.
