How to encourage play in a rescue dog that doesn’t play with dogs?

I understand the answer to this might me “you don’t” but I thought I’d ask in case anyone has any great tips or activities to share.

We are fostering a little 9lb female dog, hoping to adopt her as she’s great, but she doesn’t quite understand that our other dog, 19lbs but very gentle and playful, wants to play with her.

She has a few moments daily where she gets hyper and hops around, but she’s not fond of toys or playing with him.

In case there’s anything we can start doing to foster more play, as our other dog would love at least being chased a tiny bit, let me know any tips! We’re not pushing her into anything, but she’s slowly opened up and will sit with him, etc
