I’m exploring and researching how ‘we’ might play more, or value play for play’s sake more.  If we did so, would it then trickle down into our classrooms, our homes, and our communities? 

At professional developments there are opportunities for ‘collective joy’ or group play. Please share your ideas and experiences with joyful, playful work days.  It could be something you’ve facilitated, a fun memory, a related game or activity you recommend, or happiness you experienced that still lingers within you.

Thank you for sharing your ideas. -Kristin Welch (a.k.a. Kritty)
