@USPlayCoalition@PatRumbaughPlay@america_plays My sister and I would play for a good hour minutes every day after school! We would also often play with our neighbors and placed cops and robbers at least twice a week on our bikes!

@HeatherVonBank@USPlayCoalition Addressing the food crisis for many and children playing with food in my opinion are two separate thing, and should be treated as such. Address kids not having enough to eat is such a hard thing, but I do think we need to do something about it. #wechatplay
When I was working in childcare I noticed that playing with food and eating food went hand and hand. Many times kids play with the same food they are going to eat. However I do think it is tragic that many kids across they world do not have enough to eat. #wechatplay
@USPlayCoalition The thing I always find funny is parents say that they donโt let there kids play with food but let them make Cheerio necklaces or use rice for sensory that is playing with food even if they arenโt actively eating it. #wechatplay
@USPlayCoalition This is a GREAT question! I do think that kids should be able to play with food. Playing with food especially those they have aversions to can be helpful for learning. #wechatplay
@USPlayCoalition Well I donโt know much about the trends I think mixing things that kids and adults do is super important! Taking groups to play bingo at a nursing home and also letting kids show others what they like to do! Passion should drive play
