Tuesday October 8, 2024 10:15am - 11:00am CDT
Play is the purest expression of our humanity.  What is happening in our brain when we play? How can we incorporate more play into the lives of our gifted children?  And how can we get better at play as adults? Some say we are most alive when we play. Let's get better at it.
