"La única diferencia entre jugar y hacer ciencia es escribirlo."

Simplified Meaning:

When you play around and try different things, it can seem like you're just having fun or wasting time. But if you write down what you're doing and the results you get, it becomes more serious and valuable. This is what separates just messing around from doing real science. For example, imagine a kid mixing different colors of paint just for fun, creating new shades. If they keep track of which and how much paints they used, they can consistently recreate those colors. Similarly, scientists make important discoveries by carefully recording their experiments. So whether you're testing a new recipe or a new invention, writing it all down helps turn your experiments into real knowledge.
