"Toys are children's words and ___ is their language" (Garry Landreth) (4)

I believe the answer is:

play

(Other definitions for play that I've seen before include "See 17" , "Theatrical production" , "Drama; engage in games" , "Slack - performance" , "Theatrical performance" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
