I have always been passionate about playing with my four children. Over and over, I have experienced that power that it has on my childrens' lives and the power it has on my life. Of course, the love for your children is strong. However, unless you are careful and intentional, day after day you can be with your children, but not connect with your children. Heighten your awareness to the seven preventers of play that keep you from truly engaging with your chilldren. Then armor yourself with the seven powers of play. Your children will be so happy that you did and so will you! Playing and connecting - our children deserve and need our eyes and our engagement!
