Praise

“A parenting guide as useful as it is scientifically sound, The Way of Play is a gift for anyone who cares about human development and the growth-promoting importance of having fun in life!”—Daniel J. Siegel, MD, New York Times bestselling co-author of The Whole-Brain Child

“This book is a game changer. It shares the secret antidote to your children’s anxiety and temper: understanding what they are saying through their play and being able to respond in that same language. I don’t know a parent who won’t learn something from these precious pages.”—Aliza Pressman, PhD, New York Times bestselling author of The 5 Principles of Parenting

“This is an essential read to understand the vital role of play in building children’s brains, hearts, and emotional intelligence. It’s an invaluable resource for anyone who works or lives with children, and I’m adding it to my bookshelf of favorites!”—Jessica Lahey, New York Times bestselling author of The Gift of Failure

The Way of Play puts play right where it belongs—at the heart of the parent-child relationship. I love how every play strategy the authors share begins with tuning in to children, with curiosity and wonder. As they explain, it’s not about ‘the right game to play’ but about our connection.”—Lawrence J. Cohen, PhD, author of Playful Parenting

“Ahh, play. We know it’s key to your child’s cognitive and social development. But the questions of how much is enough, what type of play is best, and why play is important are rarely discussed. Enter The Way of Play, a book co-authored by one of my personal parenting gurus—Tina Payne Bryson—that addresses all these issues and so much more. It shows the many benefits of even a few minutes of play—including some fun for all ages!”—Madeline Levine, PhD, author of The Price of Privilege

“[An] astute parenting manual . . . It’s one of the more fun parenting guides readers are likely to encounter.”—Publishers Weekly
