To play, to express oneself, to experiment, to tell stories, to vent anxiety, to move: play is all this, and perhaps even more. That is why it is so essential for children, fortunately we all know this today, thanks to a long tradition of psychological studies.

At home all the freedom of outdoor games is restricted. Not for this reason will the crossword become the perfect game for the whole family. Children continue to need to draw, manipulate materials, simulate situations, and focus on activities in which they are engaged and protagonists. It is up to adults to find the best way to minimise the unease of the little ones, forced to play only “board” games.
Creativity also means subverting the rules.
Starting with that very “table”.We invent new ways, unusual spaces to play. If the table is not enough, we use the floor, drawing on washable surfaces, which multiply the space of a sheet infinitely. Of course, protecting surfaces, as practical sense and adult rationality teach us, but as a function of breaking down the limits we impose on children.

Anyone who is experiencing the constraints of living together in confinement mode knows that dialogue with children cannot be a continuum of prohibitions, while instead the opportunities for breaking household rules multiply exponentially. On the contrary, more and more moments of shared enjoyment should be sought.

Here then adapt spaces to their use is the winning move. If we want to give free rein to the expressiveness of drawing, to the creative manipulation of substances (from plasticine to various slurries that can be obtained with food), we will not have to worry about soiling, about taking over areas of the house usually destined for more morose uses. We protect surfaces and then eliminate the thought of order and cleanliness, to unleash creativity! It will immediately benefit the little ones, but almost certainly also the older ones, because creativity never abandons man, at every stage of his life. Playing together with children can be an opportunity to carve out hours of healthy fun for oneself as well. Then, with a single gesture, you can restore the house to its “normal” appearance.
