For those that do preschool or use a curriculum, here's a great article that highlights the importance of a play-based preschool program, one that includes a lot of imaginative play (adult-mediated). Note that it is an opinion article, written by college professors, but very interesting nonetheless.

One thing I always tell my preschool parents is that the most important skill they can learn in preschool is self-regulation and impulse control. If they have those skills when they go to kindergarten (and throughout life), they will have a much better chance of learning and succeeding in school.

Hope you enjoy.
