The world of children is a world of play. So it is appropriate to learn in children aligned with the game. Therefore, when teaching children early on by playing so as not boring for children. The game is one of the dominant social activities in early childhood. Because, children spend more time outside the home playing with his friends than engaging in other activities.

Playing is a fun and exciting activity. Play helps develop the child's imagination, creativity, ability to solve problems and improve social skills. Play is important because it supports the cognitive, emotional, physical and social development of children.

When playing, the child will make choices. They have to choose what to play. Children also choose where and with whom they play. Identity and confidence can develop without fear of losing or failing. As children grow older and their identities are better formed, they will increasingly be able to face the challenges of a game that is structured, aimed and more limited by rules.

If a child fails while playing a game, it will help them deal with failure in the truest sense and manage it when they are really responsible.

The parents will be able to get to know the child by watching while playing. In fact, through games (especially pretend play) parents can also find impressions and expectations of the child towards his parents and family.

Needs and desires that can not be met in other ways, can often be fulfilled by playing. Children who are not able to achieve a real-life leader role may be interested in fulfilling that desire by becoming army leaders while playing.

The game will allow children to learn to deal with personal life situations while solving problems. Children will try to analyze and understand the problems contained in each game.

Give praise to the child by using a positive sentence and be able to be an encouragement in doing things better. For example, when a child is asked to pick up a red marker, start with 'please'. If the child succeeds in taking it, give praise and say thank you.
