Reflecting on @brewerhm words,” I have never met a parent who doesn’t want what is best for their child. Their hope is that I will do everything humanly possible to ensure their child is chasing their very best. They want their child to learn to go one more round.” #WEareLakota

Outdoor play offers numerous benefits for children, including boosting their intelligence, enhancing social skills, improving health, and increasing happiness. Unstructured play in nature is particularly beneficial for kids. #OutdoorPlay #ChildDevelopment

Block play helps us learn about spatial awareness, problem solving, size and shape, continuity and permanence.
'Block play engages spatial sense and motor abilities; it can be a solo or a group effort; block creations can stand for an indefinite period of time.'~ Lawrence Balter

Scientists have recently determined that it takes approximately 400 repetitions to create a new synapse in the brain—unless it is done with play, in which case, it takes between 10 and 20 repetitions! ~ Dr. Karyn Purvis
