Child's Play

Child's Play is an odd film when you think about it. Who exactly was it made for? It certainly couldn't have been made for kids, due to the vulgar language from Chucky, so unless you are sneaking a peek at the film or if you are like me and were allowed to watch them at a young age, the film must be for adults. Right? I don't know, cause doesn't you think most people wouldn't have given the film a chance when they heard the plot? A story about a child's doll coming to life and killing people? Most

young children, there is no distinction between play and learning; they are one and the same. Playing is a priority in early childhood, yet not all play is the same” (Butler, 2008, p. 1). Since the beginning of mankind children have imitated adults and learned to survive through play. Evidence of this includes toys and board games from 6,000 years ago that have been found in Egypt and Asia (Dollinger, 2000). In the last two centuries, child’s play has been observed and studied by theorists and recognized

There is much controversy about what type of play is more important in a child's life. Some believe creative free-play is more important and others argue it is more important for children to participate in organized activities. Experts provide excellent reasoning on both subjects. As a mother, I think it's imporant to have a good balance of both free-play and organized activities.

Finally, I was able to pry the door open –BAM! Time had stopped. My mouth opened wide as if to scream out loud

There are 6 movies in the Chucky series. Which personally, I believe that either Child's play 1, or Bride of Chucky is the best.

Everytime I watch Chucky I’m reminded of the first time that I ever genuinely

Preschoolers delight in fantasy and play and engage their newly found cognitive abilities to extend their world of make-believe (Timberlake & Culter, 2005).

Play is important in a child’s development as it helps in the child’s cognitive, emotional, physical and social development. It is through play that the child is able to interact and engage with the world around them and discover new things such as the objects they fiddle with and the lessons that they will soon learn from interacting with toys and people.
