]]> Comment on Bringing Back the Joy of Childhood by Jean Oram http://whatsupforkids.com/bringing-back-the-joy-of-childhood#comment-523 Jean Oram Wed, 11 Jan 2012 19:11:45 +0000 http://whatsupforkids.com/?p=1208#comment-523 I agree that play is so vital to a child's development. My daughter gets upset if she doesn't have time to play for at least an hour after school. She really needs that time to decompress. And I hear you on those one-hit-wonder type toys! They are rather disappointing. Our son (11 months old) got many lovely toys for Christmas but his favourites are the egg timer (because its 'ding' it random when he plays with it) magazines (shred!!!) and the old metal container for cooking utensils (makes a marvelous sound when you bang on it). Thanks for the great article! I agree that play is so vital to a child’s development. My daughter gets upset if she doesn’t have time to play for at least an hour after school.

I found you :) It's the Leigh from Mom's Group...way back in the day! The kids and I want to take a trip to Hawaii for early summer 2012, but I have never created such a trip on my own. Can I come visit you to learn the ABC's of travel arrangements? You look beautiful--glad I was able to see your face so I could make sure it was YOU! If you still have my phone number (the 529 one) I can respond to calls quicker than emails. I live in the dark ages of technology and check my email only every few days...sorry :( It will be great to catch up. L. Hooray!!! I found you :) It’s the Leigh from Mom’s Group…way back in the day!
