The purpose of this paper is to extract from current literature about play those concepts which seem to have most significance in the psychomotor development of the young child. For the purposes of this paper physical education is limited to that physical activity which occurs within the confines of a school. Very brief reference is made to play in relation to sport and the wider context of present-day culture. The concept of mastery play and stimulus seeking are examined as part of the child's growing maturity and the question is posed whether playfulness shown at an early age may be associated with a particular style of thinking in later years.
本文的目的是从当前关于游戏的文献中提炼出那些似乎对幼儿心理运动发展最为重要的概念。就本文而言，体育教育仅限于在学校范围内进行的身体活动。本文非常简要地提及了与运动及当今更广泛文化背景相关的游戏。作为儿童日益成熟的一部分，对掌握性游戏和寻求刺激的概念进行了研究，并提出了一个问题：早年表现出的嬉戏是否可能与晚年特定的思维方式相关联。
