Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

A Friendship Blossoms

Well my little Lea Muller (who I have renamed Heidi) arrived yesterday, so I took a couple of snaps of her with Gretel (Rosi). They seem to be getting along like a house on fire!


Gretel: Hello, I haven't seen you around here before, are you new to the neighbourhood?
Heidi: I've only just arrived from overseas, but this looks like a very nice town.
I brought my block trolley with me. Do you like playing with blocks?
Gretel: Oh yes, I love playing with them. You can build things and that's so much fun.


Lea: I think we are going to become great friends.
Gretel: Me too! Do you want to come to my place for lunch?
Lea: Yeah, that will be lovely. Do you have fruit? I love fruit!
Gretel: Yes, and yummy cream cakes too!

So off they went to feed their chubby little faces, muttering to each other all the way. :)
