Maish Nichani summarizes this nicely in elearningpost: "Nice article on the importance of play in learning. Learning is not all about external rewards and punishments, rather “the human brain determines our learning potential, and subjective experience is, clearly, more than just stimuli and responses. Furthermore, it has been shown that even the most intricate system of rewards and punishment cannot change certain species-specific behaviour. In fact humans exhibit much behaviour where the reward is only rarely external, but rather ‘natural’, as in the children’s play with crayon and paper."
