Answer 1

When children are actively involved in an activity they like they will learn more than when they are following another persons directions. They are using more of their thinking skills as they design the course of the activity. When activities are intrinsically  interesting the child will stay with it longer, thus developing their attention span. the play is pleasing to them and they are not doing it to please someone else. They are developing self motivation and curiosity. all of these are important characteristics of good learners.
