Floor Games; a companion volume to "Little Wars" by H. G. Wells
"Floor Games; a companion volume to "Little Wars"" by H. G. Wells is a book published in 1911. In a humorously dictatorial tone, Wells argues that the best indoor games require floor space, toy soldiers, wooden blocks, and imagination. Drawing from play experiences with his two young sons, he describes creative games involving island kingdoms, twin cities, and engineering projects. This pioneering work has been recognized as an early precursor to learning
through play and child psychotherapy, frequently reprinted alongside its companion volume "Little Wars." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
