Who would have thought that the years of all-day bike riding, drinking from the garden hose, and crawdad fishing could be as important as they actually were? In a very serious world, we learn how important it is to take time to play. Cydni discusses Peter Gray's research findings on how mammals must play in order to survive. That is why she takes playing so seriously. Sher teaches us about Buffalo Moments and stands behind the idea of not more school but better school. Today, we kick up our feet, relax, and use science to encourage a little more laughter and a little more play. Today’s episode is "The Power of Play," and we are so glad you are here.
