When my eldest was a toddler I was trying to hold down a job (working from home), keep my marriage together and stay on top of housework. I didn't want to stick him in front of the screen for hours. And that's when I discovered the magic of independent play...
As my husband and I had more children, independent play quickly became THE key to our family's wellbeing. Our kids behaved better, were better regulated, learned so much, were physically healthier and just overall happier the more hours a day they spent in imaginative, creative, independent play.
Eventually I began teaching others to reclaim play. Dozens of clients at first - going into each of their homes, decluttering, reorganizing and coaching them to teach their kids the independent play skills. Dozens snowballed into thousands of students worldwide and my videos now have millions of views. Each child saved from a play-less childhood is a major win!
