Ep 253: The Way of Play with Georgie Wis...

THAT SOUNDS FUN NETWORK
About this episode

Have you ever heard of play therapy? It’s based on the idea that play is the language of kids. Well, our friends Georgie Wisen-Vincent and Dr. Tina Payne Bryson have written the book that decodes that language for us all, The Way of Play: Using Little Moments of Big Connection to Raise Calm and Confident Kids! We had the privilege of interviewing Georgie about the new book and can’t wait for you all to listen. She gives such great tips for us on how to not only understand, but connect with, help kids regulate and more through the magic of play. You’re going to love this episode! And you’re going to want to share it with all the parents of littles you know!
