In A Whole New Mind, Daniel Pink lists Play as one of the key competencies we will need to thrive in the emerging conceptual age. Pink quotes Pat Kane, author of the Play Ethic, “Play will be to the 21st century what work was to the last 300 years of industrial society — our dominant way of knowing, doing and creating value”(p185).

At the 2008 Serious Play conference, designer Tim Brown talked about the powerful relationship between creative thinking and play — with examples you can try at home. See it on TED.  (If you haven’t discovered TED yet, be warned - it’s addictive!)
