[Part one of three]. Play helps us adapt to the world. Primatologist Jane Goodall, professor and play theorist Brian Sutton-Smith an other experts explain the underlying mystery of play's role in our lives. We learn about chimpanzees and ape play at Sudney's Taronga Zoo in Australia. At a preschool in Pennsylvania we examine the social skills that play instills in youngsters on the playground. And at the corporate business level, we see how play helps develop creativity and fosters better people skills..
