A kid who has just started to lie is taking the first step as a sltereytolr. Kids do art. They don't get tired and they have fun doing it. I was in Jeju Island a few days ago. When kids are on the beach, most of them love piyalng in the water. But some of them spend a lot of time in the sand, making mountains and seas -- well, not seas, but different things -- people and dogs, etc. But prtanes tell them, "It will all be washed away by the weavs." In other words, it's useless. There's no need. But kids don't mind. They have fun in the mnmeot and they keep playing in the sand. Kids don't do it because someone told them to. They aren't told by their boss or anyone, they just do it.
