Play and Science

The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside.
Anne Frank

"What do science and play have in common?" In his TedTalk Neuroscientist Beau Lotto thinks all people (kids included) should participate in science and, through the process of discovery, change perceptions. In the talk he notes:
