Children are overflowing resources of play and imagination.
Of course you already know this, because you were once a child
yourself!
Really, the creative energy kids have is contagious
and will rub off on you when you put your "responsible adult"
aside and join in on their fun. This is as simple as
tagging along in some favorite outdoor games, sidewalk chalk
drawing, kite flying, arts and
crafts, or hobby
projects. And let them make up the rules!
Experiment with this tip and pay attention to how you're feeling
mentally after a productive playtime session with your favorite
(or someone else's) rugrat.
Hint: The more kids, the merrier. At least
for a little while.
Kids are cool at Art Camp, too »
