Mr. Rogers thoughts on play:
“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning.
But for children play is serious learning.
Play is really the work of childhood.â€
“Play is the beginning of knowledge.â€
Play is taken very seriously at our house. I have found that when there is a designated play time, we are all happier.
This day, the sun was shining, and although it wasn’t super warm, it was so great to get on the familiar path that lead us to our neighborhood park.
It is so fun to be here and watch the boys as they take their work of play very seriously.
I wish we could weather, and time like this, so we could play the day away like this everyday.

I’m a big defender of play time as well. And I think your local park looks cool. You don’t see wood very often anymore on a playground.
I need to get my boys to the playground. . .
