>> Arguing against the dominant developmental theories (e.g., Piaget, 1945;

>> children’s pretend play in illustrating our thesis that pretend continues to
>> exist during adulthood. In this discussion, we focus on similarities on the
>> definitions, psychological origins, social functions, and developmental
>> consequences of pretend play and adult improvisation. Finally, we end the
>> article with educational implications of conceptualizing pretend play as a
>> life-span activity and offer directions for future research.
