Interest in play as an educational tool dates back to Plato and Aristotle, who asserted that children's play shapes the person they become as they mature. Based on the innate nature within every child, the importance of play lies in teaching them life skills in an enjoyable manner. Guided play helps train and refine a child's natural activities, providing an outlet for excess energy and channeling it into positive, beneficial, and constructive behavior.
