Abstract

Game is the main tool through which the child expresses his identity and develops his knowledge, even the most complex one. Many scholars have shown how free and socialized game has an important and fundamental function in the development of cognitive, creative and relational skills. For a child, game is an activity in which he feels able to express his own personality. The analysis of the game structures allows us conveying didactic-educational principles in the training phase, which can be observed almost naturally during growth, and that affect the psycho-physical development of people. These structures concern the exercise, the symbol and the rule. Elements of connection develop from the first exploration activities up to the correct use of the symbolic game in the first phase of the intellectual growth. Learning about the knowledge to be transmitted through the game is decisive.
