Aug 06, 2019•1 hr 1 min•Season 1Ep. 38
Episode description
Toys. Toys toys toys toys toys. That kind of sums it up, really - how life feels like with kids!
This week we start our three-part series with a chat about the psychology of play and that part that toys play in it, as well as the part toys don't play in it! We talk about the importance of play and what it does for our children's development.
We also talk about the acquiring of toys and how you can make it intentional and helpful so that you and your children aren't overwhelmed with too many toys taking up your precious space and time.
Next week we'll talk about decluttering toys, and then organising what's left.
