VALUE OF PLAY TO (HUD TOLD Mitt Boyd Addresses Kinder- garten College Studentt "Play brings to the child a development that nothing else can bring," asserted Miss Neva Boyd in speaking before the students of the National Kindergarten and Elementary College this week. Miss Boyd is head of the Recreation Training School of Chicago which is located at Hull House, and an outstanding leader in this field. "To look at play," said Miss Boyd, "as a kind of pleasant capsule to slip down the throats of children in place of unpleasant knowledge is a narrow con- ception of play." "Then she pointed out the values of play in a development of healthy emotions and in the functioning of the child socially. Teaches Social Justice "Would you think it possible," con- tinued Miss Boyd, "to talk to a six-year- old about social justice and the evils of special privilege? That is what adults talk about. We could not talk that to children, but what about the child who wants all the turns in the game, then slowly realizes that such a course of ac- tion is not fair and he says, 'I have had a turn but she did not have a turn.' What have you got there if you have not got social justice?" "One of the greatest things of all is a sense of responsibility for others," said Miss Boyd. "If a group of chil- dren in playing break a window and you say to a child, 'Well, John broke that window, but we were all playing and don't you think we should all pay for the window?' you get 'yes' every time. Ethics Are Dangerous "These and other social virtues we can get to children in no other way ex- cept through play," continued Miss Boyd. "It is very dangerous to give ethics to children. Morality is an active thing* ethics"is theT Theory concerning it. No- body with real good sense will teach ethjes to children. If we think we can get preachings to children or young peo- ple we are mistaken. Youth won't take it. It is not interested in ethics and ethics is bad for it. Anything that turns thought inward is bad. Youth is inter- ested in morality because morality is an expression. It is a thing that is going out all the time." "I look at a really adequate play pro- gram for children as life in the miniature. There you work out the sense of social relationships and virtues, and there you solve the problems," concluded Miss Boyd.
