Exploring everything, real and unreal, through play. I wonder how many fabulous creators, builders, caregivers, scientists, chefs, parents-built their passions through loving the play of it.
Beth, is this your quote? Powerful. Children making sense of their future, their past, and what is real … through their play, their imagination. The power of imagination, underrated … the power of play, and the sacredness of play … severely missed by so many. A tragedy when that happens; but thankfulness when we and our little ones can connect in the realm of play.
