It’s funny how we often debate things with a black/white, either/or paradigm.
Like whether preschool is for play or learning, for instance.
Or order vs chaos. (Controlled chaos for me, please.)
Or a little bit country vs a little bit rock n roll.
Or arts and crafts.
Yes, for many in the early education/child development world, the debate about arts and crafts rages on, with nary a UN negotiator to step in and help.
Like most debates, however, camping out in either extreme generally misses the point.
