More on Creative Play from NPR

Here's a link to this morning's follow-up story from NPR's Morning Edition about children and creative play: Creative Play Makes for Kids in Control. We wrote about the story that aired last week that introduced the subject. You can read our take on it here or jump directly to the story on NPR's website: Old Fashioned Play Builds Serious Skills. Either way, the series is really fascinating, especially given the over-regulated lives that many children lead these days.

You can also read answers to reader-submitted questions about kids and play from Adele Diamond, a professor of developmental cognitive neuroscience at the University of British Columbia.
