Vygotsky believed that play provides children with rules of behavior that they must follow in the play situation, as well as the opportunity to create imaginary situations that allow them to explore unrealized desires. He also believed that play occurs within a child's zone of proximal development, meaning that it is challenging enough to promote growth and development but not so challenging that the child cannot engage successfully. Therefore, both options A and B are correct. Option C is incorrect as Vygotsky believed that play occurs within a child's zone of proximal development, not below it.
