How Do I Use This Site?
Hello and Welcome!
This site has under gone some changes. I used to update and send weekly emails with activities. Now there is a large collection of activities which are easy to search through on the page "Activities By Category". I update sporadically with our activities.
I started the page in an effort to help others find useful and fun play ideas. I have gone back to work as a teacher and find it difficult to both do the activities with my children and write about them. I have continued to play with the kids and given up "blogging" on a regular basis. It is much easier for me to have time during the summer to write and post about our play. I hope you enjoy the ideas.
Find the Play is Essential Fan page on Facebook. Many ideas are published here as well, and will show up in your news feed.
