150: How to Enjoy Play More with Sarah Scott Dooling

The Balanced Parent Podcast

We are nearing the end of my 30 Days of Play Challenge. And with that, I would like to thank those who have joined. I want you to know that I am proud of everyone who put in the work to know more about their children through play and made the effort to make independent play better. I am also proud of every parent in this community who committed to becoming balanced.
​
And before we end our play challenge, I would like everyone to know that there will be a Wrap-Up Webinar on January 31st at 1 PM Central. If you'd like to join us just CLICK HERE, and I'll make sure you get the link the day before!
​
Alright, now for this week on The Balanced Parent Podcast, we are going to talk about how to enjoy play more, not just with our kids but for ourselves too! We are so focused on parenthood and other responsibilities that sometimes we forget to have fun. And so, to help me in this conversation, I have invited Sarah Dooling.
