In this episode of the Home Ed 360 podcast, we speak with Dr. Peter Gray about the vital role of play in children's learning and development. We discuss how traditional education often overlooks the importance of play, the benefits of self-directed learning, and the mental health implications of current educational pressures. Dr. Gray shares insights from his research and personal experiences, emphasizing the need for freedom and opportunities for children to explore and learn through play. The conversation encourages parents to rethink educational approaches and prioritize play in their children's lives.Resources: Peter Gray's Substack: Play Makes Us HumanThirteen Ways to Enable Free Play and Other Independent Activities for Your KidsGuest: Dr. Peter Gray Home Ed 360 Website Host: Rebekah Wood / [email protected]
