”Play is behind all intelligences, together with all intelligences, and changes all intelligences. Without the ability to play, the various intelligences will not be developed. And to develop  multi intelligences a meta intelligence is needed to cross over beyond and connect.  Play is this Meta Intelligence, the glue which connects them and yet still remains a free changing agent moving through them and creating new possibilities which eventually become new abilities - new intelligences.”

Is there the possibility that deep down in the innermost crevices of the human mind, there is a vestibule, the recipient and harbinger of a secret?  

“All that which is human; intelligence, learning, moving, growing and living, lies in the very essence, in the seed of human endeavour – the urge to play…and play, is the source of all that is human. 

play is more than an intelligence.  

Play is a meta intelligence

Play is, the Meta Intelligence

and the mother of them all"
