By presenting a play situation where two girls are dancing to pop music on the digital iTiles, this paper firstly aims to outline some of the changes in play practice among children. Secondly it emphasizes that play is no longer only directly handed down from generation, but is also established in specific situations through the uses of technology, contemporary culture and media. As a conclusion, it seems that the play culture and cultural practice of children is not homogenous, but instead a dynamic practice which is shifting its character constantly through the players’ practice.
