ludic


Explanation:
Existe o prórpio adjetivo Ludic, que significa playful... Vejam a entrada do Webster:
Pronunciation: \ˈlü-dik\
Function: adjective
Etymology: French ludique, from Latin ludus
Date: 1940
: of, relating to, or characterized by play : playful <ludic behavior> <a ludic novel>
Notem que, diferentemente do português, não se pode usar como substantivo "o lúdico", "the ludic". Temos que usar algo como ludic activities.
