Is Your Family Playful? Check Out My Playful Family #gogoplayfully Giveaway

June 17, 2013 by Momstart 7 Comments

GoGo Squeez conducted a survey about playfulness in American families. Survey results show a disconnect between how playful parents feel and how often they actually get to experience unstructured play – free and imaginative play as opposed to an organized sport or game – with their families. Most parents (92%) describe themselves as “playful” but they struggle to fit the unstructured play they remember from childhood into their own family life. In fact, a majority of parents (74%) have a problem keeping “playfulness” alive day-to-day – revealing a playfulness deficit in American families.

clip_image001But it is not their own playfulness that concerns them most: two-thirds (66%) feel they spent more time in unstructured play when they were young than their kids do today. With a reduction in unstructured play, 75% of these parents fear their child is missing out on key developmental lessons including learning:

 

  • to be creative (36%),
  • to communicate (36%),
  • to share (25%) and
  • to resolve conflicts (23%).

My kids don’t concern me one bit. LOL watch the video and decide for yourself if I should be worried or not.

    Our driveway and sidewalks are always covered in chalk drawings. It’s always awesome to see what they come up with.
    Thanks for the chance!
