@tculiink I can't wait to read this publication. I have a desire to get outside everyday and play in nature, whether it is a walk through the woods, swinging in a park, playing in the leaves or if I happen to be near a beach wading in the surf. I'm inspired by the Liink Project to go play.
@tculiink I always felt that sports specialization led to a little bit better competition for those athletes who excelled anyway and were destined to play in high school and college sports. And it robbed others of their youth. I’m glad you have more concrete notes!
Next stop is #FortWorth w/ @tculiink at @BRIT_org on Oct 9. Discover #community based #play resources that are in #neighborhoods, #schools, #parks, #libraries, #museums, #zoos & even at City Hall - #ProfessionalDevelopment #education #recreation - bit.ly/ftworth-play23
It’s true. ❤️ Maximum security federal prisoners get 2 hours of recess a day because they are concerned about their mental, emotional and physical health. Schools in America average 25 minutes a day. Houston…we have a problem!!!! Time to make sure all children benefit from…
@RHughesParker @MikeHynes5 For many Ss, school feels like prison. Developmentally they need more time than adults for free play. It’s not too much to ask for 45 minutes to an hour of recess a day. Check out @tculiink for research on the benefits of recess for cognitive, physical, social & emotional growth
@USPlayCoalition A1. Here’s a great quote from Dr. Stuart Brown to start us off in a good way: 👇 “Play is a basic human need as essential to our well-being as sleep .” I couldn't agree more. 👏 #WePlayChat #ActivePlay #Wellbeing
Let's not forget about #inclusive #play when we talk about #wellbeing too! #WePlayChat
Every child deserves opportunities for play that are comfortable, welcoming, and fun. Here are 30 reasons why play is so important for children with disabilities: bit.ly/2n6h8tG
Yup! #Play --> decreased #stress --> increased #Wellbeing 🎤drop #WePlayChat
@USPlayCoalition A3. One study of young adults found that those who rated themselves highly playful & open to “clowning around” reported less stress in their lives & possessed better coping skills. < stress = increased wellbeing. I’ll take it! @AARPIntl tinyurl.com/AARPintl #WePlayChat
@USPlayCoalition A3. Based on my own anecdotal evidence via 10 years of journal entries and the evidence I have seen, I would say the answer here is no. I would say that #Play is a foundational component of #Wellbeing. #WePlayChat #ActivePlay
@wellnessrf @USPlayCoalition @LetsMoveLibrary @NoahLenstra Absolutely! Our friends in #libraries are HUGE supporters of Libraries, #Learning and #Play - Libraries and #librarians across the country are doing incredible activities to draw people to (or back to) #reading with play as a vehicle! #WePlayChat
Play & movement builds resilience. When things don't go as planned, we can approach challenges w/ a little more ease. My dear friend @TaraStiles @Strala_Yoga taught me this. Give it a try: stretch like your fav animal, roll around on the floor, sit in the grass... #WePlayChat
Here is our final Q of the #WePlayChat! Q4 is ready! 💯 @wellnessrf #play #wellbeing #wellness #health #healthandwellness #mentalhealth #healthandplay
@USPlayCoalition A4. Final thought... By promoting #play with adults &the aging population in North America. Aging well is paramount for increased longevity &quality of life. Innovations in this space in the coming years will be huge. Right @PeterDiamandis? #WePlayChat #Wellbeing
@USPlayCoalition @wellnessrf Play offers freedom & escape from everyday routines & worries to: Let your mind go and pretend you are anyone and anything Try something new - over & over & over Create a masterpiece or write a book Watch the moving clouds with a friend #WePlayChat
I enjoyed listening to this podcast today. I hope all administrators and educators will strive to give students daily breaks and recess as often as possible.
NEW EPISODE ALERT! In Part 2 of our 2-episode series with Summer Belloni, she and Dr. Rhea discuss the importance of advocacy for parents and educators in school and the barriers they may face. Listen now on Apple, Spotify, or here: podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/liink…
We can't wait to #play in Fort Worth with our friends at @tculiink 🤠🤠
