Worldplay is persistent (lasting months or
years),elaborative (accumulating
detailed histories of persons and place)
& creative (often involving the making of artifacts). A young C.S. Lewis made maps, drew
pictures, and wrote stories of Animal Land, thereby exercising imaginative skills such as observing, imaging, modeling and playing.

Worldplay in childhood & adulthood:
Claes Oldenburg, invented the imaginary country of Neubern as a child and parlayed the processes of worldplay into his adult artwork…,
In adulthood, Desmond Morris, zoologist, writer & visual artist, has created an imaginary world of biomorphs, surreal creatures modeling zoological behaviors and evolutionary forces…

In sum:
The more we can be explicit about what we mean by imagination and creativity, in terms of imaginative thinking tools and other relevant skills and behaviors, the more we can be precise about the cognitive value of the active engagement people experience in art training, and the more we can purposefully transfer that value to the pursuit of knowledge in other fields.
