Find The Magic  show

Summary: <p><strong>This week we explore the ideas of Lawrence Cohen. We often think of play as a secondary, optional activity. For kids, exploring the world through play is part of their healthy development. We dive deep into the science of play and discuss how to harness it for powerful connection.</strong></p> <p><u><strong>Books that inspired us:</strong></u></p> <p><a href="https://amzn.to/3i3mhdR"><u><strong>Playful Parenting</strong></u></a><strong> // Lawrence Cohen</strong></p> <p><a href="https://amzn.to/2MPsQW2"><u><strong>Raising Lions</strong></u></a><strong> // Joe Newman</strong></p> <p><u><strong>Related Episodes:</strong></u></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000444984447"><u><strong>Authoritative Parenting / Arguably the most EFFECTIVE Parenting Style </strong></u></a></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000439843995"><u><strong>Make Your Morning Routine Happen!</strong></u></a></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000463840682"><u><strong>Finding Motivation to Claim Your Personal Power Hour</strong></u></a></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000427659925"><u><strong>Discovering YOUR Life Essentials</strong></u></a></p> <p><u><strong>Links We Promised:</strong></u></p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/shop/felicaallen?listId=2O85YJTT8WHT7&amp;ref=cm_sw_em_r_inf_list_own_felicaallen_dp_gjzhEKQt8HNgG"><strong>Here</strong></a><strong> is a list of ALL our favorite books, we use Audible as our library.
