Play gives children the opportunity to learn and experience things themselves, which is vital for their development. When playing, children will find and explore their own limits and take risks. There's a good chance they'll get dirty and pick up scrapes, bumps and bruises, all are vital parts of a normal childhood.
Doug Cole, The Concept of Play Malnourishment in the UK
