  • "We must give childhood back to children. Children must be allowed to follow their inborn drives to play and explore so that they can grow into intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically strong and resilient adults."

    Dr. Peter Gray

  • "The more risks you allow your child to take, the better they learn to take care of themselves."

    Roald Dahl

  • "Think of playtime like an innovation lab where tomorrow's civilization is being actively designed."

    Jordan Shapiro
