Why is creative play so important?Updated 4 months ago

We believe when people are making and playing freely they are solving problems, exploring new ideas, stretching their imagination, developing new skills, testing their limits, tapping into their instincts, collaborating and innovating. We highly recommend watching Ken Robinson’s TED talk on creativity.

At Makedo, we are continually engaging with educators, researchers and industry experts in play and childhood development about the evidence-based benefits of open-ended play and creativity which include adaptability, communication and support of mental, emotional and social wellbeing.
